Well Not Dead

[oneshot]

Had  Hog cured. Cleaned it up was going to let it age.

Had some Apple Wood. Decided to smoke it. So spent yesterday Smoking it.

Well 4 people ate some and are still living so guess I didn't mess up.

Now my wife is wanting to Cure and Smoke all meat.

Oneshot, when you say Hog, do you mean a whole Hog, or are you talking about a ham? How does one cure a whole Hog? Glad it turned out good.  CM

Just a small one. 250 pounds + a Ham.

When I was a kid we did 8 at  time.

We would quater and salt them. 

Scaring my wife take a fresh killed Deer,gut it and mop it out with Brine, salt around cuts and Bullet hole.

Use to leave gutted Rabbits in the shed to freeze,  use as needed.
