ya they are pretty much everywhere by our cabin. we are actually hunting hare not rabbit. they change color and for a short period they are all white in a brown world. they sit just inside the tree line and think you can't see them. we just pop them in the head with a ,.22 from about 60-80...
I am sure that you can cook them whole. like xjcamaro I hunt them and we get as many as 20 in a good day of hunting. so when its time to put them away in the freezer I cut off the back legs, the back straps and the front legs and there isnt really much left after that. I didn't used to take...
Had a bad weekend... My homebuilt big daddy smoker burned up! Could have caught the house on fire. So I am seriously considering a traeger for safety and ease of use. I noticed however that not too many folk here seem to use them and I am wondering why? Is it mostly a cost issue? A simple...
xjcamaro,
have you ever tried making any jerky out of it? I have made several batches now with a couple different spice packages and they all turned out great. so far the family favorite is when I grind it up and mix it with some ground beef and use the jerky gun to make "slim jim" size...
well hello there.
I realize this is an older thread but I saw the link in your signture on a different post and decied to take a look.
I put a little over 100 alaska snowshoe hares in my freezer this fall. so far I have been making jerky and stuff and never really thought obout smoking the...
then i would definaltly guess that your "crumbly" issue is caused by freezing. anytime I have "accidently" let cheese freeze it has always ended up being "crumbly".
Ive only seen cheese get "crumbly" if its dry or has been frozen. my guess is that maybe you smoked it too hot and cooked a little too much oil out of it. just my guess!

my first try at cheese the cheese was pretty bitter and strong right after smoking. let it sit a few days and it was MUCH better. it got better the longer it sat. it has been 5 weeks and I just had some of the last package today. when I think back to how bitter it was to start I am pretty...

well all I can do is bow down and say "Im not worthy"
all you folks have many years experience with this and I am just a newbie but here is my 2 cents.
when I first started to get into this fun hobby I bought the same books listed in the previous post and one of the most memorable peices of...
john,
thanks for doing the math for me. i was planning on looking up the exact amounts for the cure # 1 when I got home and doing exactly that equation to find out if they were the same amount of sodium nitrate and sodium nitrate when used in the proper quanites.
sorry if I posted the wrong...
it that is wrong I apoligize but as I said in my quote I took that from the above post. so far my only hands on experience is with TQ. I am quite sure that it is 1/2 tablespoon per pound of ground meat. if I am wrong in that please let me know!!
dalton
in my limited understanding of the subject I would agree with AK1 in that you can use tenderquick instead of cure #1 but you need to use it in the correct cure to meat ratio for the cure you are using. now I do believe that with morton tenderquick that the cureing time could be longer because...
