    Liver ring

    I know it's regional and it goes by many names. Hatfield made it commercially forever, but the discontinued it. It was a fully cooked liver pudding ring. It was cased like a sausage, but the casing wasn't edible. I'm looking for a copycat recipe if anyone knows what I'm talking about.

    Is my jerky still good?

    Hey all. I have 2lbs of top round marinating for three days now. With work I just don't have the time to get it in the smoker. I did use cure in the marinade. It should stay good for a few days in the fridge right?

    curing sausage meat

    Hey everyone. Got a question about curing. Usually I make a sopresatta style patty 70% deer 30% pork. They go pretty quick. This year I got two deer, so I plan on making the same recipe but in links. Is there any special curing guidelines for venison or just follow the regular #1 formula.

    Boston Nutt halving

    Hey everyone. I was thinking of getting the twin pack of shoulders from Sam's club, then cutting them in half and vacuum packing them since I'm usually only making pulled pork for my family. Good idea?

    Timing opinion

    Hey all. I'm smoking 2 - 7 1/2# briskets for a party tomorrow. I want them to be done around 11am Sunday to rest for two hours. I plan on setting the smoker at 200* and I want to apply smoke for at least 4 hours. When so you think I should start them?

    Need a brisket opinion w/ Qview

    Hey everyone. I'm going to do an 8lb center cut for a fantasy football draft party. I have the latest model MES 30 that I've produced excellent briskets with so far. Not a huge bark hound, more of a juicy tender taste here. I have my rub made already and I'm going to start the brisket Friday...

    Brisket Question

    Hey all. I have a quick question that I probably know the answer to, just want to double check. If I rub a brisket and Saran Wrap it today, will it keep for 36 hours until I throw it in Monday morning? Also, has anyone ever tried doing a crosscut in the fat cap to let rub penetrate better?

    Cure Question

    Hey all. My mom works in a rather large meat processing plant. I asked her to get me some cure. She brought me home two 1oz packages of 6.25% legg cure. It says use 1oz per 25# meat. How would I equate that to brine for bacon?
