Error Momma had a fresh 30 pack in the van knowing I was gonna have a long day. Seems to help some since in the past hour the IT has climbed to 145. I aint liking the looks of the outside of the ham starting to get White almost as if the salts are being drawn out of it and creating a crust/bark on the ham. We will see

Sounds like it's drying out some. Maybe slap some oil on him?

Well I went to check on it at 10pm (That's 29 hours for those that are counting) The PID was beeping telling me it had ended its program. A few choice words were uttered. I looked at the Maverick uttered a few more choice words it was at 148*. I brought it in the house slapped it on the cutting board peeled off the netting and took a picture. Now the light brown spots are like blisters but they are still soft. The white on the top that I thought was salt is actually the "Blue Skin" from the earlier pics.

I tried to pick it up and found out that it hadn't sealed itself back together. So I cut the two sections apart. I cut off a couple of taster pieces. Here is a picture of what the inside looks like. Looks nothing like most Venison that you cook not grey at all. It almost looks like Pastrami.

Now those two pieces that I cut off for tasters. First off they do not exist anymore. The one that was closest to the outside was a tad bit salty, actually it was really salty. The next slice in wasn't as bad. I did try a small piece from where I split the two halves. It wasn't salty at all but had a really awesome ham flavor. This 10.5 Ham scores a 2 Thumbs up rating. If you want some come and get it before it's gone.

Well I'm impressed.

Never would expected the inside to look that nice.

great job Chris.

Wow Chris!
That looks awesome :)
I'm sorry that I missed the first parts but I've had house guests.

Wow Tenpoint, that looks good. Like I need another reason to go deer hunting...

Time for an update. After taking the tasters off last night. I wrapped the ham in foil and into the fridge for an overnight. This morning I pulled the smaller piece out and sliced it up. The taste had completely changed in this piece. It has gone from having a ham flavor to more of a chipped beef flavor. Now don't get me wrong this is not a bad thing it is actually very good. I will get some more taste testing this afternoon when I make sandwiches out of the slices. I have the seal of approval from the yardapes with just the slices, just need the seal on a sandwich. Here is the slice that I was testing last night all sliced up.

KevinG · April 25, 2010, 09:59:47 AM

Funny how these flavors change.

Looks really really nice! Great job 10.5, wish I could sample

Looks GREAT Chris!

Aint nothin wrong with a big ole pile of chipped deer.

Chipped deer is a big hit at our house, we eat it right outta the bag.

I like to make SOS with it, mmmmmmmm gooood.

Tenpoint5 · April 26, 2010, 09:55:22 AM

Well the Yardapes polished off two of the piles yesterday. So I got to thinking I be hungry I want a Reuben Sandwich. No Rye so Wheat, No Thousand Island so Hot German Mustard and Horseradish No Swiss so Baby Swiss. The first sandwich was so damn good, I didn't even get a pic so I had to make another just to show you all just how good both of them sammies was!! Third pile gone, guess I have to slice up the other half now!!
