It was 14*F when I got up this AM. Perfect smoking wx. So....today's projects include a Mojo marinated Coppa for tonight's Cuban Sandwiches, some jerky, Buckboard Bacon, and some naturally fermented pickled cucumbers.
First, the Mojo marinated Coppa (aka Money Muscle) on the 14.5" WSM. She's a beauty!
Then, some jerky to dry and a Buckboard Bacon. I'll increase the temp after the jerky is dried at ~ 100*F slowly increasing thru 150*F.
Jerky is dry! The smaller portion I used Dale's. Seemed like a good idea at the time but it was more cooked than dried and SALTY! Oh well, the bigger portion was my go-to recipe from a MO Surveyor... and it's perfect, as always.
Then, I am trying my hand at naturally fermented pickles. Here's my pickling spice mixture.
...all mixed up waiting for the lacto to take over.
Just waiting on the BB Bacon to be complete.
