    As a South African, (and carnivore) let me say, look amazing. Good job representing our favorite meaty snack so well. Secondly, for your own sake to take your biltong to the next level, you need to make yellow fat biltong. I speak under correction, but the local farmers who have yellow fat are all grass fed, grass finished. I highly recommend you source some and give that a try. You will not be dissapointed

    Greetings all the way from Melbourne Australia, I love your videos and for a couple of years now I have been making cappacoli usung the equilibrium method. I have also made your 2 year old porchutto and they have been amamzing, so thank you for sharing these videos. I want to give this Panchetta a crack and I am still deciding to either do it with the loin muscle or without (like you have in this video) I am wondering if I end up making it with the loin how do I tackle the cure time? if I go by the thickness of the belly I would end up with around 3 days cure time and the loin muscle will be under cured and if I go by the tubular measurement I will get somethign like 5 days and the belly will be over cured. how do you think i should handle this? or shoud I just do the belly like you have done in this video. Regards Adrian

    I'm 20 days in and it's lost 20% is this a good speed/rate of drying ? 2.2 pound lozino and coppa. Both drying pretty similarly. At this rate it'll be done in 35 days only like 5 weeks . Seems to fast but I have perfect 53 degrees and 75 humidity in the reserved dry ager 50.

    Can you do all of these exact steps but add pink salt # 1 and just 2.75% salt? Still let it ferment before hanging to dry. Everything the same but just add pink salt ?

    Eric, I must have viewed 30-35 videos about making sausage. They ranged from very informative to delete 30 seconds in. This video is exceptional (yes, I subscribed. Didn't with the others). Knew where you were going. I've made bacon for at least 8 years. Never used curing salt. Ditto for pastrami. Why? Two friends with cancer can't take anything with nitrates in it. I am thoroughly up on safe food handling processes but have always been biased against curing salts. Now that I am adding a ground meat product to my repertoire I am conscience that it is different from the big pieces of meat I had been smoking. I have ordered some celery juice powder from The Sausage Maker for a substitute. Anxious to see how it works out. I am already seeing another of your videos showing up in my Recommend list. Be Well.

    Question: Is garlic required for fermentation of the salami? If I don't want to use any plant-based products and only salt, can I still get safe fermentation of the salami, especially when left outside for 36h to 48 h ?

    When nitrate or nitrite extracted from natural vegetable in lab then that's not healthy, just like refined sugar which is not healthy, it spikes blood sugar, cause it's not natural, but fruit sugar doesn't spike blood sugar cause it's natural, don't eat unnatural things (lab made)

    Can lamb be substituted (with about 20%fatty pork) or are you better with a whole different spice , seasoning mix. If so, may want to do something similar with Mutton.

    Probably too late for a question, but why not use a vacuum sealer? 🤔

  • @2guysandacooler
    @2guysandacooler2 күн бұрын

    You can. Depending on the vacuum sealer as not all are capable of sealing mylar bags. Also, when the vacuum is made it will crunch everything in the bag potentially destroying the form. Not a big deal in this case but if you were to make shepherd's pie it might end up looking a little crazy
