it's not only a lot of fun to make this stuff yourself - but on top..
* you know what exactly goes into those sausages - no mistery fillers.....:shock::roll:
* this stuff (specially the fancy cured stuff..) is a lot cheaper than in the "gourmet" stores - check the price of cured hams, prociutto etc... a lot of places are very "proud" ($$ wise..) of their wares..
so today, to make some space for my next load of stuff in my dryer..
I sliced up some cured Carne Salata ( a salted prociutto made from pork cushions (boned out picnic shoulder.. @ $1.69 per lbs..)
and some Bresaola (Airdried beef made from beef sirlion @ ~ 4.99 per lbs..)
and all it took is some reading...
very clean/sanitary handling of the goods , spices and..
patience while it's in the dryer ..
or in case of bacon, sausages etc.. - in the smoker....:mod:
