Cold smoked venison backstrap..

I like cold smoking at night personally....higher RH% at night. Cold smoke in the 50's is perfect.....that's when I like to cold smoke my bacon.

Well I figured I'd post my results. This turned out exactly like I was hoping. This is essentially bresaola only cold smoked to desired weight reduction.

Meat candy , did you follow bearcarvers recipe to cure and smoke to temp or did you cold smoke after the tq cure ? This is similar to what I’m trying to accomplish but am torn between a tq brine or #1 brine and tq rub

I ended up cold smoking after 8-9 days of curing. I cold smoked it for 4 nights (wrapping and refrigerating during the day) got me close to a 30% reduction in weight.
