    Dried Beef Step by Step (Great Stuff)

    Thanks so much Bear. I will smoke it and see how it turns out. My edit function appears to be working fine today. Yesterday it kept spooling like when your computer freezes up. Could have been our less than optimal internet connection! Thank you for the instructions! KSp

    Dried Beef Step by Step (Great Stuff)

    Bearcarver, do you have an idea of what the max number of days you can cure this recipe would be? Dried Beef, step by step, using TQ The reason I ask is because I have had a beef round eye (the thickest pieces 3"), curing since 11/16/20! Bad weather and company staying with us for a week all...

    Canadian Bacon Dry Cured (Step by Step)

    Thanks Bearcarver!! That’s what I was hoping to hear. . The picture of the uncured meat is so helpful!! I have wondered what it would look like if the cure did not get through to the center. Now I know. . That does not look good. I smoked everything this morning, started about 6:30am and...

    Canadian Bacon Dry Cured (Step by Step)

    Bearcarver, I cured a pork loin according to your Canadian Bacon Dry Cured step by step. I put the TQ on the evening of 1/13/19 so today is day 11. I rinsed one portion of it and sliced it in half to check to see if the cure went to the center. The color is pink, and the corner area above the...

    Pork Loin Jerky (Step by Step with Pics)

    That’s no joke! We used to get great dried beef from our (very) small town butcher in northern MN 40+ years ago when my folks would have beef butchered and processed there. The shop is still there, but the recipe has apparently changed. It is no longer the same, and not very good. That’s...

    Pork Loin Jerky (Step by Step with Pics)

    Sorry, Bearcarver, I wasn’t very clear. All I have done is trimmed the fat from the loin so far. I haven’t applied the TQ or brown sugar yet. I would like to use about 3# of the loin to make your pork loin jerky to give it a try. I am just wondering if I can put the sliced loin in the jerky...

    Pork Loin Jerky (Step by Step with Pics)

    I hope no one minds me butting in here, I have a question!! Bearcarver, regarding your Pork Loin Jerky: In your step by step you marinate for 24 hours. Would there be a problem with marinating longer than that? Like 4-5 days? I am prepping a pork loin today according to your Canadian Bacon Dry...
