    Jerky time again

    Smokers fired up and finally got jerky on. Trying something else while I'm at it. I put a couple large yellow onions on to smoke . I'm always adding them to soup and stew and thought this might take them up a notch. I'm going to freeze them after smoking for use this fall/ winter .

    Turkey lunch at jerky

    Definately 2 thin . Flavors there but its jerky enough to jerk teeth out.possibly a thicker slice would make a better jerky. Was hoping to make a use of a deal...but definately not as jerky

    Turkey lunch at jerky

    I recently found Smithfield turkey breast a dollar a pack and stocked up for lunch at work. Well it's great if you like a salt sandwich. 150 mg salt per slice. So I figured I'd try making jerky out of a couple packs. I soaked the slices in water for a day changing the water 2 times . On final...

    Its that time again

    Well as usual it fatted out some. So a good hot. Water rinse and hung it on the back porch.Its just about dry and shortly I will individually bag and we can see how long this batch lasts. As far as hanging I have found a plastic coat hanger will hold 5# of summer sausage to hang and dry.

    Its that time again

    I start at 150° and work my way to 180°ish and try to hold it there until finished but with my offset I have a heck of a time keeping a steady temp though. Will have to mod it I believe.

    Its that time again

    The casing is cheese cloth. Some of my fondest memories are of when I was a kid and every year my grandfather's friends would give us a stick of summer sausage. It was about the size of hard salami and wrapped in cheesecloth. So obviously when I decided to make it I want with the childhood...
