First Trail Bologna w/ Q-View

[nomorecoop]

Did this a couple weeks ago. Then I got sick, then the site crashed, so I'm just now getting around to posting it.

Made 5 pounds. I used a mixture of ground beef & pork. It was 3lb beef to 3lb pork.

Just putting in the smoker...



About 1/2 way done...



All finished up & ready to go!



Hanging to dry after the ice bath.



Sliced & ready to eat!





Thanks for viewing!!!!

That looks great!!...how fine did you grind the meat?

 

[nomorecoop]

Since I'm using a grinder for stuffing, I use the medium plate. Not sure of the diameter.

They look pretty tastey NoMo. how long did they cook and at what temp?
Got any left?

 

[nomorecoop]

If I remember right, I kept the temps between 140-170*. I think it took about 4-5 hours, but I've slept several times since then, so I really don't remember.

Yum...great looking trail bologna!

 

[jerseyhunter]

Looks great, do you have a recipe? Is it anything like you get at a supermarket? in other words do you use it for sandwiches with mustard or mayo or is it eaten hot like kielbasy? Also the recipe I have calls for fermento, does that mean it's tangy? Thank you in advance.

I used a trail bologna kit I bought from Gander Mountain.

Works great on sandwiches, crackers, or just sliced & eaten.
