    Cutting boards.

    You can also look at the big box store . Just be careful buying without seeing , because some of it is not rigid enough . This is what I bought . I adapted my router table to the 12 X 12 size , so I can hang it in the table ...

    Liquid Smoke Summer Sausages

    Poli uses 1 TBL per 5 lbs . I started with 1 tsp per 2 1/2 pound batch . Snuck up on it with 1 TBL per 2 1/2 pound batch . I honestly didn't really notice it in the final product . Smells strong when the grind is raw and mixed . Seems to mellow after cooking . Poli also has some methods where...

    Snack Sticks: Lessons learned

    Looks good . My sticks are normally all pork . I don't get " Hammy " unless that's what I'm after . My guess would be the mix you used . Probably needed more black pepper or some other " spice " I mean ham is cure , salt , sugar and smoke . So if that kit is heavy on the salt and sugar ...

    Pop’s brine scalable?

    I figured that for the cure and water , because it's a set amount . The original was 1 cup of salt and the sugars to 1 gallon of water . Later on he had reduced levels for a lower salt version . 1/2 cup of the salt and sugars to 1 gallon water . Cure stayed the same . I think he even listed a...
