preservation
I have to agree with what I am reading, that is one of the reasons I am trying to learn as much as I can about making dry sausages.

rolls
Nice rolls, very creative. I am sending a picture of my recent attempt on making pepperoni following chuckwagons instructions. They are in the drying stage. Let me know if the pictures come thru. I tried to send a picture but I do not know how to get it down loaded. Any suggestions?

pepperoni
Chuckwagon,
I bought a small humidifier to put in my freezer. I ran it for about an hour and the temp went up to a 100 degrees. Now that i got the humidity up in my fermentation box, how do I keep the temp down?
