Thanks for the recipe CW, do you recommend still curing the birds even though they will be cooked to 170° ?

Thanks,
Wayne

CW I am not a hunter but I do get venison from time to time from friends, I have a roast and some back straps in the freezer as we speak :mrgreen: I like your idea of the lacing and will give it a try but I will side with Emeril in saying "Pork fat rules". When I am outside guarding my cooler on a h...

Thanks steelchef, maybe we can laughingly adopt the policy of "no pix, it didn't happen". I am a simple man with a simple mind, after so much reading I need some pretty pictures or something shiny to look at. :lol: :lol:

Thanks CW, we had a group of around twenty and everyone seemed to enjoy the two home made sausages. I will be honest with you, everyone raves about the Tenderloin but I think they don't have much flavor, just give me a bone in Ribeye or a nicely smoked brisket any time :lol: Thanks jbk101, I'm kinda...

I use straight Stainless Steel tubes and the only problem I had was needing to file off a small burr on one of them, other than that they work great. It helps a lot if you can dip a little water inside of the casings to keep them lubricated as they slide off of the stuffing tube. I have also found t...

[USA]Easter cooking

Lets hear what some of you are doing for Easter. I just finished a batch of hot smoked polish sausage, some breakfast sausage that I will form into patties and fry, and a batch of scrapple. Scrapple is a regional dish with roots on the east coast and being from Maryland I was introduced to this at a...

I tried a few batches with my KA stuffer attachment and quickly decided I needed a stuffer. I found a Weston stuffer on sale at Cabelas and have been very happy with it, stuffing is so much easier now, it takes about five minutes to empty out 5-6 lbs of meat. The longest part is feeding the casings ...

Thanks CW, there is much to know about a very basic thing like jerky but that is just how it is these days :lol: The USDA current recommendation for making jerky safely is to heat meat to 160° F (72° C) before the dehydrating process. This step assures that any bacteria present will be destroyed by ...

Thanks for explaining things CW, now let me throw another one at ya. I have read many jerky recipes lately that recommend heating the meat to 160° BEFORE putting in the dehydrator. Is this really necessary if the meat is cured?

Thanks,
Wayne
