Egg Burrito , Good way to start a cold day .
By weird coincidence I saw an article this AM written about a famous joint in Denver that is known for these and they showed a pic of it and it was seared HARD and smothered in green chili sauce. My jaw hit the floor! -
Diner Blue Plate Special - Smoked Top Round Eye w/ Mash and Gravy
CONGRATS! Beef looks great but that sauce looks glorious! Homemade stocks? -
My salami and snacking sticks way too salty?
Yeah caught that too, which is I said I was scratching my head. Yep beat me AGAIN HA, 1tsp cure #1 cures 5lbs so scant 1/2 tsp would do 1Kg/2.2lbs. -
My salami and snacking sticks way too salty?
Direct link from High Mountain... 2lbs matches pic you posted. If OP is using cure #1 in place of the kit's "cure", yeah not cool at all. -

Scratches head... The HM come with a maple cure mix or something... -
A California Burrito/Wrap from a Californian
Joking aside I know that combo works well and would be all over that! Asian chicken salad wrap. Mandarian orange was perfect for that! That pasta would probably come across like another soft protein like beans or tofu chunk. Melting the cheese is making head explode with ideas. That might... -
Egg Burrito , Good way to start a cold day .
OOOH the finish of the burrito with the press!!! Be out on the recliner after that with a fire going. I went thru water egg phase. Currently on mayo, just came from buttermilk which was pretty good. All are good and just different spins. -

Nice But Reasonably Priced Starter Guitar Suggestions?!
Astoundingly good for what it does for the price! Real quick generalization of music gear: the expensive stuff is like 10%-20% better for all that extra dough. Not 100%, not 50%. That being said, when you do get to point where your skill level is decent, this 10-20% becomes sorta magic as...- zwiller

Nice But Reasonably Priced Starter Guitar Suggestions?!
Was a professional musician since 7th grade, started in 4th. Trained on both drums and guitar. I can talk about this stuff ad nauseam. Youngest daughter just got into it. I went with Squire strat (mini as she is 12) and Line 6 Spider: $200 for the setup. Amp will do pretty much any sound...- zwiller

apple juice in cure for bacon
No joke I actually did this one time. OMAK style injection. I first did 50:50 water:juice and that worked so I did 100% juice. No issue. It was canadian bacon. While it is acidic, do not think it is acidic enough to burn the cure. The results were good but nothing mind blowing so never did...- zwiller

Mountain Pulled Pork but no bone
So cool to see you posting again Disco! When I run pulled pork I cut the butt into 2 hunks: one with bone and one without and can tell you with 100% certainty the bone side tastes no different than the one without. There are 2 good reasons for cutting it half: 2x more bark (yes you read that... -
Saving Pop's brine
Deli meat is actually simple once you figure it out. It's mostly about salt. You can dry brine, wet brine, but the the pros inject. Faster and more uniform. Pretty sure lunch meat is cooked via sous vide. If its smoked I think it's done after the SV. If I was wanting some I would make a...- zwiller

What rub do you use on hot smoked bacon (pork belly)?
Not a flavored bacon guy but this sounds insanely good. IMO the key to a good spicy mix is ditching the cayenne (and the often used paprika) and instead using a quality chili powder. Brings way more flavor than you think. OMG wish I knew this years ago... New Mexican Red is currently my fave.- zwiller

Coppardo....The Reveal!
HOLY... Outstanding work!!! FYI I deliberately stay out of these threads as I want to do this sorta stuff in the worst way but no time. People think fruit on trays like these are for decorative purposes... Nope, palate cleanser as you say. Dare you to try this one: cottage cheese and... -

Added shelf for additional space .
Honestly, I think it looks better now. Cannot really put my finger on why, maybe since the piece was was on the longer side to start with? Too funny, we have the exact same crock same color on bottom shelf right.- zwiller

Pastrami help
While I still use Pop's and it was the method I learned to cure with, I now would suggest using Tenderquick for anymore first getting into curing. The salt variance with Pop's can be frustrating especially when you are first starting out. Pops used sea salt from my memory BUT the formula is...
