Today is Election day 2012. What better subject to write about than “pork”?

BlueTang made some tasty meat products last weekend. He sent me some pics…and being a man of few words, he “allowed” me to narrate.

Pork butt fat caps. YUM! These were trimmed off and saved from previous pork butts BT has smoked.
Ready to grind
Ground up fat caps and ground pork ready to be mixed together.

 

Jagerwurst and Kielbasa Spice mixes
Splitting the batches and mixing in the cure and spices
All ingredients are mixed
A sample of each being cooked in order to taste-test. This lets you know if you need to adjust the seasoning. BT required extra lard to cook these.
Jagerwurst and Kielbasa in natural casings, ready for the smoker
Future Buckboard Bacon. BT refers to this as the “money muscle”

Hog-tied and also ready for the smoker.
All products on their hanging stick, about to get smoked.
In the smoker.
After being smoked.
WOW! Buckboard bacon! This looks good! I never got to taste it though…. 🙁
My share! And ZERO complaints!
