I’m hoping some of you have run into this..... I’ve been stuffing sausage into natural hog casing for years. Some I’ve bought online, others I’ve gotten at the local meat company. They are always white. Sometime packed in salt, other times in clear liquid, but always white. The local meat...

So, a brief intro.....I have been smoking meat for about 10 years now. I started with a concrete block smoker. It worked fine, but I really wanted a way to control temps and my wife wanted the eye sore out of her yard. I bought a Masterbuilt electric smoker and made some tweaks here and there...

Just put my mind at ease....I cured a pork belly and pork loin for three weeks in Pop's brine.  I've been cold smoking it for the last two days in the MES set at 100 degrees (to help pull the smoke and dry the meat out a little). I plan on pulling it this afternoon and letting it rest in the...

This is my first attempt at a cured, cold smoked boston butt ham.  I let in soak in Pop's brine with some garlic powder and a few other spices for two weeks.  It has been in the MES 30 (no heat) with the AMNPS for about 14 hours. The ambient temps outside have been in the 60's.  I plan to let it...

I recently made a very good buckboard bacon from a piece of boneless Boston butt. I cured it with #1 cure for about a week in a Ziploc bag in the fridge and smoked it to 140.  It was fabulous!  I recently deboned and cured a whole Boston butt, but instead of putting it in a Ziploc bag, l set it...

Marc here in South Alabama! I've been smoking for several years in a homemade concrete block smoker. I just stepped up to a MES 30. I have 20 month old twins who take up most of my time at home and constantly watching a fire just ain't in the cards anymore. Seasoned the MES last night and...
