Ok so maybe not as original as some of
Buckeyedude
is for his thread titles... but haven't been slacking! A few things crossed off my list for now.
Did a small batch of kabonsy and some Red Barn bologna... stuffed into cloth bags.
Have to thank Rich,
chopsaw
for helping me out solving some issues I was having... Turning out much better quality now!
Did get some of Bearcarver 's meltaways made but no pics ( I know, I know). But part way through January the chocolate covered peanut butter balls craving came, my wife wasn't around to do her impeccable job on the chocolate coating but...
For some reason I ended up with a craving for cheddar and broccoli soup this weekend. No build pics but complete with some hard bread ( croutons) and added cheese... balls! By the way... the dogs love them!
Needed to cure and cold smoke some bacon...
Didn't get as nice as color as normal but still smelled amazing!
After two days of cold smoking and a rest in fridge uncovered... by the way, the peanut butter meltaways I didn't take pictures of... got cold smoked in the fridge by the bacon! This is pure happiness!
And packaging, we do 1/2 lb packs for the two of us... we can always get more out when the kids come home.
Was almost out of smoked cheddar cheese so did 6 lbs of cheddar and 6 lbs of colby jack . Love the cheese cutting board a rendezvous friend made!
In the smoker with amnps with apple pellets for 4 hours
After an overnight rest in fridge uncovered, all vac sealed.
Sometimes things get busy and sausage making doesn't always work out . It happens to us all. I'm not a huge sausage maker but as Charles,
Gonna Smoke
had some delays, I've had some too! Had 2 pork butts was gonna grind, life happens so zip lock bags into the freezer... not long ago my wife was vac sealing meat and was gonna vac seal the butts, I told her leave them out... ground them and packaged in 1 Kg batches. Have never had Italian sausage before so... yep! A small batch, wife and I both liked the test fry patty.
So that's it for food! Now if you don't know me, my phone is filled with food pics and our beloved pets!
Kya... mom said treats!
I can sit pretty mom!
Kali... nice to meet you!
I'm a big girl mom!
Based off her nose and height on calendar on fridge... 4' 10"... yes I measured lol!
Can't leave out the elder... he's 15, and momma has popcorn that they all love!
Ok, so I lied, it did happen... pics! Have a few left!
Have to brag about some of my wife's projects... she made blankets for two of our nieces
Thanks for stopping by!
