Post by: NePaSmoKer on November 28, 2010, 06:15:00 AM

Doing corn husk wrapped pepperoni mini's............................Pay attention now  :D


Cure added to 1/2 cup water. Mix until dissolved.

Pepperoni mix added to cure water. Mix well.

2 1/2 pounds of 80/20 GB. Mix added to meat.

Pre soaked corn husks. Soaked in warm water.

Roll small chubs so they fit in the husk while you roll them.

Tie the ends with strips of corn husk making sure the meat does not squeeze from the ends.

I cut the long ends from the husks. Now ready for some Apple smoke. Going in at 160*

OK what are you going to use for casings next? Do you think the pepperoni will pick up any flavor from the corn? They look good so far.  :)

They turned out better than i thought. Didnt pick up any corn flavor.

Rick I have to say that last pic looks like something you might find on the South side of a North bound Great Dane!!! ;D ;D You made it so I already know they should taste pretty good.
