I have been practicing this craft for a little over a year now. I converted a wine fridge into a curing chamber. works great.

There are a few posts here like the mortadella: ttp://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/116407/mortadella-fancy-italian-bologna

I have one on the pancetta: http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/105858/pancetta-first-try-picts and Chicken Galantine: http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/104007/chicken-galantine

I picked up a book called Charcuterie by Michael Ruhlman and Brian Polcyn.  This was a great book to begin with.

good luck.. can't wait to see some picks.
