I'll go along for the ride! What's with the imported beer? :D

Love the colour!

I missed these posts. Sorry.

They have been curing for 8 days now. Gonna go till Wednesday I think. Then rinse and net or tie to get a round shape then dry for a day or 2.
Alot of liquid in the bags which is normal.
 
Still curing. The time is coming for action shots thou.
 
I got two rumps curing also in the refig using bear's recipe also. Planning on smoking Wednesday or so. I am going to try brown sugar glazing later in the smoke process and give them as gifts with thick sliced packs.
 
That sounds good.

I took mine out of the cure lastnight.
 
Great Start, Adam!!:)
I tried a much longer Smoke one time, but it got too Dry for me---Similar to the Store Bought stuff.
I like it moist, because most of mine goes in Sammies, and I don't like the way the Store Bought stuff sucks the moisture right out of my bread.

Be back. (Make believe I'm eating popcorn here while I'm waiting):D

We had a Amish butcher that we used to send the hindquarters to, he cured and dried them. We loved it. We eat this as chream chipped beef over toast. Or just as is for a snack. We want ours dry.

Starting smoking tomorrow morning. Dont fill up on popcorn.



Late but I'm in

Guess you got out during the hunting season

Very late update. I dont know where my smoke pics are .. SORRY.

Cured for 2 weeks with TQ. I know it dont look like its cured all the way but it is. 12 hours n the MES with pitmasters blend then in to a 170 degree oven. Total cook time was 30 hours to get it dry.

I just posted in the Maryland section with the round football roast on deer and the center looked like that. I figured I didn't give it enough time. Was I wrong?
