Pork butt here is $2.39-2.49 lb, even at Sams. I am out. Mike, Take an ice chest with you to the fair, if you have time for an additional stop. South of the fair grounds and west of Snelling on Como Ave. is a Restaurant Depot . If you buy a case lot, the price is usually under $2.00/lb. for pork sh...

Thanks for the kind words, Chris. Originally, I had planned to do this with a fresh ham. I checked prices with a local full service butcher. He wanted $3.99 per pound! I thought that $73.20 was too pricy for making sausage. This recipe was a bit more labor intensive than the recipe of Stan M's I mad...

My first attempt at making bacon using pork belly. Ross, I love your formulation for shoulder bacon! I have been using it almost two years, I think. We dry cured 23 pounds of belly ($2.40/pound) for twelve day and placed it on hangers after covering it with fresh ground black pepper. It was dried fo...

With the great price currently available on fresh pork loin, I thought I would give this recipe a try. Total batch weight around 20 pounds or just over 9 Kilo.

I picked up four half-loins, and will place them in brine tonight after removing all the fat and silver skin. I was thinking about stuffing them into casings for a nice round appearance after slicing. Has anyone else tried that? If so, what size casings did you use? Always before, I've just laced th...

I spent over forty years serving my country in the U.S. Air Force. If there is one thing I learned in all that time is to ignore rumors. Rumors are nothing more than unsubstantiated gossip, fueled by fear and concern. We, as observers can only wait to see the intentions of the webmaster, and then de...

It's a subsidiary of SuperValu Foods (From their website: A National network of grocery stores with multiple formats under various regional brands.) called Cub Foods. I think Cub Foods is local to central Minnesota; I have three of them in easy driving distance. High quality meats, but not always th...

2Mk checking in; no pictures this time around. Just last night I finally got caught up on the reading. I got stuck reading about soy protein concentrate as I was reminded of an early attempt at making a 'Brown and Serve' breakfast sausage using SPC and Cure #1. I had stuffed them into 21mm clear co...

No harm, no foul, Ursula ,. I actually thought it rather prophetic, as the weather we were experiencing was very Californian! With things reversed, I haven't a clue how to get around Oz, nor where Country Victoria might be. I do appreciate the kind thought. Thank you! Thanks, Chuckwagon! Mike, bela...

This past April, Jean and I were in Washington D.C. for my nieces wedding. We made time to ride the bus out to Three Little Pigs (TLP). It's a cute little shop and Carolina was a great hostess. Unfortunately, Jason was in Michigan for his brother's wedding, and they had scheduled the kitchen floors ...

Jan, I, too, have been having trouble sealing the bags completely. I'm interested in your solution, though! Do I understand correctly that, rather than attempting to reseal again, you just tightened them up with elastic tube netting? Ingenious! I would not have thought of that. I have some Lomo and ...
