        mars don’t let it win! There is a black cloud with an arrow pointing up at the top of the box when you reply or post. If that doesn’t work email them to jonathon@waltonsinc.com and let me know which post you want to put them on.

          Just breaking a hog and been told smoked jowl is good. I can’t find any references on how to clean it. It looks like it is all glands. Do you leave all that on or clean it off? What’s the norm?

          mars here’s the photo of my jowl. Is my knife pointing at glands? Do you leave them in or trim them out? From the suggested video I gather it’s better to leave them in.F7B69E25-9000-4190-96DA-2D30C4F70C61.jpeg

                      Jonathon yes I removed all the free standing ones but that honeycomb stuff that I’m pointing at in the picture is still on ,that’s as far as I trimmed it. From multiple YouTube videos it seems to stay on???

                        mars general consensus here is that as long as you got the lymph nodes out you should be good to go!

                          Sorry about being absent and of no help. I opened this thread but felt too bad to post anything. A trip to the Dr. has got me back among the living.
                          I didn’t have any of that on my jowls so I just trimmed things up and then rubbed in the cure really good.
