Whole deboned stuffed chicken Cordon Bleu
Al, Is there anything that can be used as a substitute for Cure #1? I have pink curing salt which looks to be the same thing. I would like to make this but wont have my Cure #1 for another week.- slief

Dedicated refridgerator for dry aging Beef.. That's my project this weekend!
Prime rib is in! I couldn't wait! I had to run out yesterday and stopped by the butcher to look at Prime Ribs. I ended up bring home a 6 pounder and prepping it last night. I wrapped it in cheese cloth and put it in the fridge. I change the cheese cloth daily for the next few days. The plan is... -

Dedicated refridgerator for dry aging Beef.. That's my project this weekend!
It seems to be working great. Its been running for a couple hours now. Temps are stable with only 2* of swing between compressor runs and humidity is holding steady at a preset of 73%. Gone are the several degree temp swings and elevated humidity from the auto defrost cycles. I will continue to... -

Dedicated refridgerator for dry aging Beef.. That's my project this weekend!
It looks like it's going to work. The fridge shut off at the preset temp. Once the temp rose a couple degrees, the compressor turned back on. I just fired the humidifier up and the fan and will let it cycle for a hile and see what happens. Hopefully the temps will remain stable to a degree or 2... -

The new thermostat is connected & the fridge is cooling. I have it programmed to chill to 34* with a 2* differential. If all goes as planned, it will cool until 34 then turn off and back on when them temp hits 36* & cool back down to 34*. My fingers are crossed! -

Thanks for the clarification. I have rewired the refridgerator and bypassed the thermostat. I still have power to the fridge light but the compressor can now be controlled through an external thermostat like the one I mentioned above. I have the fridge in a cooling cycle right now. Once it hits... -

Dedicated refridgerator for dry aging Beef.. That's my project this weekend!
Perhaps you are right. My concern is that if I want to keep the cooler set to 35* and it jumps to 41-42* during the defrost cycle, that 42* will have an affect on the aging process and cause the aging to accelerate or worse induce premature spoilage. On a warmer day, the temp may rise beyond... -
Dedicated refridgerator for dry aging Beef.. That's my project this weekend!
It seems as though I have encountered a minor issue. This refrigerator is an auto defrost model. The temp swings on this refrigerator are upwards of 6* or more depending on the ambient temperature outside of the fridge. . Once the compressor turns off, the compressor stays off for a certain...
