Earlier in the year I got a fresh ham that had all the skin removed. I decided to cure it proscuitto style. Salted, hung, and when the time came, I covered anywhere that had exposed meat with a mixture of lard and rice flour. Last night, when I was checking on the chamber, curiosity got the best of me and I decided to crack it open and see what was up.

Not the best looking thing in the world at this point. Wiped off as much of the lard as I could.....



Cut about a 1/3 of it off. Seemed much more promising.



Broke it down into manageable chunks to vac seal but had to have a couple of slices for quality control.



Pretty pleased. Tasted just like a young proscuitto. Pretty happy that I gave this a shot and didn't just grind the thing or something along that line.

Excellent work. I have always wanted to get into dry curing, but never have. One of these days.

Hell yea Joe! I always wanted to salt cure a pork leg like jamon. Problem is that we don't have basements and even worse is that it's always warm around here.

Yeah, if I didn't build a curing chamber, I wouldn't try 1/2 the things I do. At least not over summer time in Memphis.

Tried my guancale the other day. It's been hanging in my shed most of the winter.



Extremely fatty. Have had to cut off all the external surfaces, but the flavour is pretty good.. if you like all that fat. Can't eat too much of it, but nice.
