Chaudin is commonly available in south Louisiana sausage shops and meat markets. It's a pork stomach stuffed with a sausage mixture, sort of like the south Louisiana version of haggis. It's also called ponce, depending on where you are, and some people call it hog maw, although either ponce and chau...

Vinegar is a mandatory component of Mexican Chorizo, whether bulk or cased. I've found that a little vinegar goes a long way. To be honest, I'm not personally that fond of the vinegar flavor, but some people might like more of it than I do. (On the other hand, I LOVE garlic!) Vinegar in Mexican styl...

Having been raised in Baton Rouge, I ate a lot of andouille when I was growing up, and I love it. I always bring back plenty whenever I go back home. I can't really cook red beans or make gumbo or jambalaya without it, and I like it in a po boy too. Making a soul-satisfying andouille is my most cher...

I also cure the bones with a reasonable amount of meat on them overnight and when cooked in a pot I reduce the liquid left over after I have taken all the meat off the bones. ... The short curing produces a better meat colour. Jan, that too sounds like a great idea, but how do you calculate the pro...

redzed, thank you for that explanation. I'm one of those who thought the packaged shoulder from Costco was one big shoulder that had been cut in half when it was deboned. I'm happy to know better now. Thanks also for the confirmation on the subcutaneous picnic fat. I now understand when I should cho...

I'm still a little unsure on this subject, so I am going to ask a couple of follow-on questions. I usually buy fully deboned and skinless pork shoulder from Costco. They are quite large, two large pieces in the cryovac bag. I believe they are in the 12 to 15 pound range, usually. They are completely...

People who sell products labeled "nitrite-free" that contain celery juice/powder or other sources of naturally occurring vegetable nitrites are misleading people. Just because they can get away with it legally under FDA rules doesn't make the practice any less deceptive. Of course, if all you're int...

Is there a calendar of upcoming beginner's projects?
Is there a calendar or a published list of upcoming beginner's projects? I would really like to join the next beginner's project, but I need to put the start date on my own calendar so I'll be reminded of it, else I'll likely miss it, just like I missed the very recently inaugurated Project KB. I st...
