Did up some CB

OU812 · November 25, 2009, 03:40:37 PM

Ran out of CB so I made up some more. Havent sliced it yet, like to let it age a wile before I slice it.

Put some bay leafs and juniper berries in this one.

Tried to make this batch with an Italian twist

I still haven't found any of the cure you guys use up here so I can make some CBB. Any alternatives to it.

How long do you age it? (vacuum sealed, or just in the plastic wrap shown?)

OU812 · November 30, 2009, 05:19:20 AM

Let it age for at least 4 days to let the smoke blend in and sliced.

Packaged and ready for the freezer.

Can you find Morton Tender Quik or Morton Sugar Cure? If so there is a recipe for a basic cure on the recipe site that will work.

Anything I haven't found one yet. I think you can get salt peter at the drug store, but the others they talk about (cure#1, tenderquick, instacure) I haven't found any. We don't have a good butcher shop around here, at least not one that speaks my language well enough for me to understand or they're just not talking. And the butchers at save-ons and safeway both weren't sure where to get it.
