OK so Im a little late in updating.

I pulled from cure and it was a bit salty so I soaked in water for a bit.

Here it is out of the soak

I smoked low starting at 100 degrees then increasing 10 degrees an hour until the chamber was at 170. Then took the meat to 156. used the AMNPTS with Pitmaster pellets.

I didn't get a picture in the smoker. Here it is packaged up.

Tim,

It is great. Makes me hate buying the store bought stuff. Just like sausage. Once you make it then its hard to go to store bought stuff.

I can't wait until April as well.
