Does smoking significantly extend the shelf life of the end product? We smoked a pork butt almost three weeks ago.It wasn't cured, just smoked. The leftovers have been refrigerated since the last time we ate some, about two weeks ago. I dug them out of the back of the fridge last night and opened the container expecting to find that they had grown a blue/green fuzz. But, no! It smelled fine, too. A pleasant surprise, but I deferred munching on it until I asked around.
Thanks in advance...
