OK its the day after tomarrow and I finally got things done
A clean peal

Sliced in half,,,,,not like the bologna ya see in the store but the good none the less

All sliced up

Some thin to snack on,,,,,,,,,,,bet I ate about an pound,,,,,,someone has gotta eat the end pieces

All weighed out,,,,,,,,1 lb stacks

Sealed up and ready for storage,,,,,,,,,along with a pack for the fridge

Ya baby!

Remember that little guy?

Snacks for tomarrow,,,every thing goes better on a Ritz,,,,now to decide what kinda cheese to have with it

Good Stuff!!!
All the flavors blend smoothly,,,,,,,,nothing over powering like the store brand kinda stuff
Its a great recipe,,,,,might up the garlic some and the coriander a bit for my taste,,,,,I like garlic
Thanks Kevin A,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,its a keeper!

That looks nothing short of amazing Curt.  Wish I had your skills my friend.

Looks great, Curt! :)

The texture looks more like a 'cotto-style' bologna, but as you mentioned, so long as the great bologna taste is there, 'uniformity' is a distant second. My last batch of bologna had a texture very similar to your's and tasted great. Alas, all 10 pounds of it is gone, now..... :(

For those who wish a more uniform appearance to their bologna batch, you can run the grind through a 2nd time with a fine (3.0mm) plate; OR emulsify in a food processor a small batch at a time. It'll 'look' more like the supermarket brands—but with a far superior flavor!

Cant go wrong with either preparation.

Enough ain't enough and too much is just about right.

Luckally I had a new bottle on the shelf  ;D

Gotta keep a 'strategic reserve' of good mustards!   And beer for that matter..

That looks really good.  Can you direct me to the recipe?

Anybody have any idea if this would work with venison? Maybe 50% venison; 25% pork 25% beef?

Thanks for any replies
