Looks great!
Is it too late to put a Christmas order in????
Most definitely yes.
But maybe if Santa ponies up and bestows me a Vacuum packer machine things will be more fruitful come the new year.
Now finished in the Brine seasoning mix.
Gently rinsed.
Time to air dry in the Fridge for a little time to firm up further.

You're going to need a vac packer, trust me!

Nifty. Got some bacon and smoked salmon in the smoker as I type. Also, after loving the duck prosciutto, am trying pheasant breasts. Leaving one plain and lightly smoking one. I really do love my cold smoker. Try smoking a load of basic veg, carrots, onion, peppers, garlic etc, drying them and powdering them, makes a fabulous stock powder, get through about a 2ltr jar evey year.
Biggest ingredient with this is literally just Time. Once they are salted and cured ( over 24 hours ) the rest is just leaving them in the fridge to mature and harden off some more.
People tell me that I must be a patient person to fish. This is next level
They were Salt cured on the 11th - so 20 days ( I'm a whizz at maths ) so apart from them getting in the way of the orange juice and milk in the fridge as they hung in front of them its really painless.
When I start making some cheeses , my patience may well be far more tempted.
