    Today’s early games are all Netflix. That sucks. I was looking forward to football today. We have Prime so will catch the late game with Denver.

    Is my bacon bad? Please help

    If you followed this recipe/process and your fridge temps are at or below 40F then you are perfectly fine. Only issue I could see would be the condition of the belly when you bought it. The discolored spots on the meat will disappear during the smoking cooking process.

    Is my bacon bad? Please help

    I just don’t have enough information about your recipe or process. But the green most likely is nitrite burn. This comes from to much nitrite in an area. I promise you that 16 days in a refrigerator at or below 40F will not produce green meat, especially when salt and cure 1 were applied.

    Is my bacon bad? Please help

    Looks more like oxidation to me. I’d give it a rinse and pat dry then sniff. The 16 days should be no problem with most cure recipes. Not sure what you used though?

    pastrami brine troubleshooting

    Make the EQ brine with just the water (10L in this case) then if you want to add ice that’s fine. But the ice weight can not be part of the EQ weight ratio.

    Easy Propane to NG conversion for Masterbuilt 40”

    Nice work. Same basic smoke set up in my big wooden smokehouse works real good.

    pastrami brine troubleshooting

    This may well be the problem. If you weighed out water weight in ice alone then applied the salt and cure as “equilibrium “ that won’t work. The salt and cure must be dissolved in the water first. If you want to add some ice after that’s fine but you cannot start out with pure ice.

    Chili. The real stuff.

    Some nice Chile Colorado there. We usually do carne adovada ( difference is Colorado has beef and adovada has pork)

    Frozen Boston Butt

    Get it thawed. Then look the surface over real good. Trim anything odd or pale or opaque. Trim the fat surface by half thickness. It will then cook up and eat like new.
