    Cold smoked dry cured chorizo.

    A mini fridge with a temp controller and small fan. i call it cheap cause its not a fancy set up lol hey but it gets the job done. what i like about it is that humidity is very constant. I cant fit a whole lot in it but its enough for me and my family. For now lol.

    What to buy in order to smoke a ham....

    One thing is never get ham with water added!! always get ham in natural juices. As you stated your local butcher can help you out. get a local produced ham that will taste best.
