I picked up a belly and some blueberry maple sausage from a local butcher. Neer tried blueberry sausage so I thought I would have it tonight and make "brinner"-breakfast for dinner. On the way home I was thinking maybe I would try to make a blueberry maple bacon cure. Has anyone tried using...
I made this cure recipe last night and added some honey and thyme. I only used about half since I was only making a couple lbs. Still getting my feet wet with charcuterie so I thought I would ask some of you experts. Any reason the cure won't keep in the fridge for a while? I spooned it on the...
Some of my non stick pans are getting pretty bad and need to be replaced soon. While I've never used stainless steel I wouldn't mind adding at least a stainless fry pan to the collection. Any recomendations on either SS or non stick pans?

Lately I've been doing this:
1 med onion-carmelized
1/2 lb bacon or prosciutto
1/2 lb chicken and portebella sausage
3 small red potatoes-I either roast them or fry in the bacon grease
I don't recall what the name of the sauce is, maybe Kevin can tell us-Bechamel sauce after you add cheese...
I finally got around to trying Kevin's butt rub for Jane. I kicked the heat up a bit and was sitting here thinking that a little lemon zest would go great with it. A coupla questions I have...
Does zest store well? If so, how? (freeze or dry)I have no intention of storing as I just use fresh...
