1st go - don't want to screw it up!
Couldn't wait. Decided to remove the skin (I definitely need work on the knife skills) and toss em in the fridge. Doesn't look to bad I guess. Time for the salt/fry test...- corvettecory

1st go - don't want to screw it up!
So it's been a week and 3 days since I portioned the belly and put in in the wet cure. Took it out today and here's what I've got. I plan on leaving it in the fridge skin side down (since I didn't remove it beforehand) until Saturday when I'll skin it and smoke it. This look ok so far...- corvettecory

Crazymoon - I found this recipe online. I halved it since it fully covered the backstraps in a gallon size zip bag.- corvettecory

Xmas Eve bacon wrapped basckstraps
End result turned out delicious. Double wrapped in foil when done til it was time to eat then threw on the grill and crisped up the bacon. Perfect. Even the "non-venison" people loved it. Didn't have any pics of it slides because it didn't last that long!- corvettecory

Xmas Eve bacon wrapped basckstraps
So for our Christmas Eve dinner we decided to try something a little different. Gonna roll some smoke on a bacon wrapped venison backstrap. Brined overnight and wrapped this morning. Figuring a couple hrs at 225 with some apple wood (or hickory- haven't decided yet) until IT 140. Probably...- corvettecory

1st go - don't want to screw it up!
So it's officially been 2 weeks that the belly has been curing and, unfortunately, I won't be able to smoke it during he week since I have to work. Will it be ok to pull out of the wet cure and let sit in the fridge for that long (7 days) or should I keep it in the wet cure for another couple...- corvettecory

1st go - don't want to screw it up!
So here goes nothing! Cut belly into 3 pieces and wrestled with the skin for about 10 minutes. Finally said screw it and tossed it in. I read in this forum that it's easier to remove after smoking anyway - we'll see. Mixed up pops wet brine recipe (had to add another 1/2 recipe in order to...- corvettecory
