    Where can I find some sheep casings?

    Thanks for the quick how-to, I think I'll try them for my next big batch.

    Where can I find some sheep casings?

    Watching. I'm wondering about the tubed casings myself. Of course, I just make my son slide them casings on the stuffer, he eats over half the product anyway!

    Immersion bacon curing - lab test results

    Many thanks Wade. I know this cost you quite a bit in time, money, and frustration. It is very comforting to have this type of data available. I'll sleep better knowing I'm feeding my family safe products.

    Bacon curing - validating the 10% uptake assumption

    I, for one, am eagerly awaiting the results. Wade, thank you for undertaking this experiment. I have the utmost respect for the old ways and established wisdom, but properly collected empirical data is hard to argue with. Since my entire, extended family eats my cured products, I want to use any...

    Cardboard box build

    Hmmmm...... refrigerator box, bedliner paint for waterproofing, guts from window AC...... just might work! Actually, I plan to build something like this: http://www.storeitcold.com/docs/ukColdRoom.pdf

    Not just bacon, Foam! Go a bunch of sausage to do, too. The butchering building is going to be a pretty big project , but I really enjoyed slaughtering my own meat, and plan to do this for the foreseeable future. The wife is supportive of this kind of stuff, she just requires proof-of-concept...

    Cardboard box build

    We have had a record season for snow here in Kentucky, most of it in the last three weeks. I know you guys put in long hours, stay safe! Pops brine worked great for me, just right on salt and sweet. I might try swapping honey for the sugar next time, but that's mostly because I can raise bees...

    You should go for it! Even with the retrofit stack, I have about $12 and an hour in the box build. I bought the AMNPS to use in my gas grill, and got hooked, but even if I had to buy one just for it, I'd only have $46 in the project. I saved nearly that much by curing and smoking my own bacon...

    Cardboard box build

    Depending on funds, I may be able to build a small covered building combining the smokehouse, storage for my butchering equipment, and if I can stretch the money far enough, a small walk-in cooler. I really want a permanent setup for my self-sufficiency activities, in a part of the property that...

    Cardboard box build

    Oh, yeah! I'm planning to build something like Pop's smokehouse before slaughter time this fall. Meantime, I have about fifteen pounds of Polish sausage for my next smoke. Absolutely! I appreciate the advice, I wish I could have figured out how to separate the AMNPS housing from the smokebox...

    Cardboard box build

    Yeah, I've read pretty much every post I can find about bacon. Unfortunately, I won't have ANY time for the next two weeks, between work, school, and National Guard duty, I'll barely be home enough to sleep, let alone slice bacon. I went ahead and sliced a little off for a fry test, it's...
