    Elk smoked meat loaf questions

    That’s be pretty cool if Florida did! Elk meat is fantastic, although I’ll admit I don’t have elk meat this year to make my meat loafs with. Gonna have to go with deer meat this year.

    Elk smoked meat loaf questions

    Cold smoked ham into sausage

    Oooooo I never thought about that. Mom has a pizzaburger recipe that uses spam. Some of this made into spam would defiantly kick it up a notch.

    Bacon curling
