Book Description
Eldon R Cutlip's all-inclusive book is just in time for a new generation of sausage and jerky makers and meat curing enthusiasts smitten by the "charcuterie" movement that is sweeping the country and capturing the imagination of do-it-yourself cure meisters. Eldon has amassed a collection of recipe/formulas gleaned from 45-plus years of experience working first-hand in all aspects of the meat processing business, both at the home level and in the meat industry as a beef boner, meat cutter, and custom sausage maker. This no-nonsense guide takes the guesswork out of the process so that all skill levels can make their best-ever product and a must-have for anyone with a desire to produce home-cured meats and sausages-domestic and wild alike. Sixteen chapters of instruction include an overview of the specific cutlery, tools, sausage casings, herbs, spices, cures, additives, including the wild and domestic meat types used to make whole-muscle jerky, ground hamburger jerky, fresh sausage, cooked sausage, smoked and cooked sausage, and dry and semi dry-cured sausage with step-by-step instructions. Eldon has included 229 of his favorite recipes; cheese dogs, chicken-Italian sausage, kielbasa, hot links, bologna, Genoa salami, pepperoni, hillbilly bacon, apple cider jerky, honey barbecue jerky, dried deer sticks, capicola, pastrami, to name a few. Features both Fahrenheit and Metric measurements and hundreds of full-color images.
