    HAM.... easy peasy... no mess.... DISCLAIMER.. MONEY...

    I can see you use netting. I was looking at those and believe I need Size 16 for loins. Sound about right? And Size 20 for butts.

    HAM.... easy peasy... no mess.... DISCLAIMER.. MONEY...

    For sure, up to 14 days normally. This was an afterthought after I read discussions on doing loins as well as butts, for Thanksgiving. So I'll go with the short cure this time.

    I injected my 5 lb fresh loin tonight. Y'all think four days will produce something good? Smoke it Wednesday?

    Now how would I do that? I'm just referring that it may not be the best quality, previously frozen.

    HAM.... easy peasy... no mess.... DISCLAIMER.. MONEY...

    My 9 lb Butt, following Dave's method, went into cure last Saturday. It was frozen, but hey, experimenting, and cleaning out the freezer so I can defrost it. It's not the main course for T-Day, but I will take some for samplers at least...

    Sorry to revive it again....but it's such a great thread, I don't think the OP and others will mind. @daveomak, sorry but I didn't see the percentage of STPP to use. I can use the spreadsheet of course, but would like to know. I'm thawing a 9-lb butt in the fridge, gonna surprise the...

    Pork Belly Burnt Ends

    So I picked up a pork belly from a local ‘Mexican’ meat market. Went in just to see what they had, and their price was close to $2/lb less than HEB’s price. It was a whole belly, weighing over 15 lbs., and the appearance was of little less quality than what I get at HEB. But based on the price I...

    Probably operator error....

    Low-Budget Slicer Not Performing

    I have a low-end slicer, not cheap cheap, and recommended on here for a beginner model. The problem is, the carriage assembly and the plate the meat presses against while sliding toward the blade are somewhat over-flexible; they won't stay in place, especially the plate. I wind up with uneven...

    Is Amazon Prime still a good deal ?

    You can find almost anything, and many times at huge discount prices. For instance, replacement support rods for Samsung washer basket; five years ago they were $140 for the set at a reputable local appliance parts outlet. Needed them again recently and a set of four with great reviews is $30 on...

    Cure Times

    Sorry to bring this up again, fellas, I have learned a lot here and have done a significant amount of successful curing. I just got into a debate on Facebook with a guy, and I was sticking by the 1/4" per day per side, which I thought I had read here several times. He was adamant about only 1/8"...
