Looking good Squirt!

I have 20lbs to do, but I drove to Cocoa beach and back instead.

Maybe tomorrow...

How long do you cure yours?

The cure I use (HM) says 24 hours per 1/4 inch. I usually go 48 hours on nuggets, 24 hours on jerky slices.

Good to know.  Thanks.    These had a 12 hour wet cure/marinade..    Probably not enough for the thicker chunks - so I'll keep them in the fridge.   They are d@mn tasty..

That was my dinner.  Lukewarm jerky nuggets and a microwaved 'twice baked' potato. 
If I miss work tomorrow - I'll know why. ::)

3 racks of ribs (split) and 2.5 pounds of fresh green beans are vacsealed and chillin' out in the deep freeze...

Ok, I'm still alive - so it must have worked!

I brought some into the office...

Looks like they turned out pretty good.

Be careful about calling yourself and EXPERT! An ex is a has-been, and a spurt is a drip under pressure!

Looking good Squirt.  It must have taken a long time to carve them cute little lines to make the squares.   :D

I also cure mine for 2 days.

Just finished 7lbs of Jalepeno seasoned last night/early this morning for my son who is getting ready to board the plane back to Houston.  Vac Packed them for the flight.

Man...  It was like grill sear marks on a 100 itty bitty steaks.  Lots of little turns, each one, all day long...     ;D

Cool, good to know.

Ok, so next time I will cure for 48 hours.   About to vac pack the remainders for the guys at work. I've had them out on a drying rack to get the rest of the moisture off of them.  (will keep them in the fridge to be safe ;))

Thanks for the idea/tips!
