Title: Load of Chubs going
Post by: Sailor on July 08, 2012, 08:09:38 AM
Yesterday afternoon I mixed up 8 pounds of 85/15 GB and 2 pounds of ground pork butt.  Then poured the wet mix in and got it all good and happy and put in a sealed container and put in the fridge overnight.  This morning got the chubs stuffed and into the Bradley at 130 for an hr to dry.  Will be bumping 10 degrees every two hrs to max cabinet temp of 175 and IT of 152.  They just got dry and now ready to roll 4 hrs of Hickory.  No pics of the mixing or stuffing. BBL

Ready for the smoke

The 4 hours of Hickory just ended.  IT is 132 as i just put the probe in to monitor it.  These may take a bit of time. 

Put a nice color to the chubs.

Nice job Sailor. Nice tight stuffing job and even smoke coverage. You guys are starting to drive me nuts. I can't play with my toys yet. No lifting. "Crap" OH well I still can watch others do nice work.

Took the Baby chub out and took a few slices.  Left the casing on but it lifts right off.  Will vac seal them later today.

Just add a bit of rye bread, a bit of cheese, a Polish pickle and you're in heaven!  (And a shot of Luksusowa would elevate you a bit higher).
