I am making my first Easter ham using this recipe. Thank you for breaking it down and making it easy. The important thing for me is not to freak out over the process. The heaping tablespoon of cure #1 to one gallon of water and injecting it like a psycho is key. Everything else is cake.
Thanks...
White sugar is just refined brown sugar where the molasses has been removed.
Out of brown sugar? Put the molasses back in. More molasses = darker white sugar.

You know, I've never tried making sausage but I see that everybody does it. How hard could it be?
I'll have to look into it (like everything else in here.. this place is NUTS for meaty ideas!).

I wasn't sure it would melt off and if it did, it would just wind up in the drip pan. If it DIDN'T... I just can't get it past my lips. I hat the mouthfeel of fat. YECH!

Yeah... Cook in it like it was bacon grease but not as yummy. :emoji_sunglasses:
I've been making ghee to cook in lately. Super-high smoke point and really delicious. Love my popcorn with that with salt, onion and garlic powders. Oh!

On the fence? No ads is absolutely worth the price if you come here for help or ideas on a regular basis.
I recommend a purchase. This is a nice place to be.

I cut the fat cap off of a Boston Butt and froze it until I got around to asking SMF if it's good for anything.
Do you use it for anything? 🙂
I am going to whip up some Boston Baked Beans and am thinking of throwing a hunk in there. What could possibly go wrong?

Mmmmm! That looks GOOD! I love the char! I love it when Mrs. Murphy burns something. She's apologizing, I'm snacking my lips!
What's that with the char; thighs?

Too funny.... I haven't done a corned beef since last year and I'm back, looking for help. And what did I find? This thread.... 🙂
Thanks again, as always, Third Eye!

Thanks, Ryan. I appreciate the reminder. Pictures really, REALLY matter - at least for me. I love seeing what everyone else is doing. It sounds like others feel the same way.

Wow, that's cool. I'm doing pork loin this weekend. I wish I saw this before I cut it in half for rubbing and vacuum sealing. Argh! :emoji_stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Hey, do we have a Weekend Challenge or something like that around here? You know, somebody says "OK, this weekend everyone does brisket or whatever." Then folks post their pictures and recipes and we can all enjoy some smoked food pics!
Anything like that? I looked. Couldn't find. Thought I...
I hear about people marinating and rubbing their meat in all sorts of deliciousness. And then I hear about how salt is really the only flavor that penetrates.
Why bother marinating or rubbing if salt is all I need?
