What has or is anyone doing now that the holiday cooking dust has settled?
I had two commercial bellies in the freezer that had to come out to make room for some of the meat from pigs we raised so they've been curing for the past several days in a nitrate-free mix of salt, a little sugar, bay leaves, 4 kinds of crushed peppercorns, juniper and a little onion. They are smoking now with sassafrass and a little apple, rubberd with more crushed peppercorn blend.
I rubbed a whole duck with a mix of salt, grains of paradise, Aleppo, sage, cinnamon, thyme and marjoram yesterday, and not it's on the rotis over apple.
Anyone else?
