Glad to have you here!

I am going to Madrid Spain friday the ham (Jammon) capitol of the world. Bar none the place to be for perfecly cured ham especially Iberico. Black hoof pigs that free range on a diet of mostly acorns. Going to the ham museum and plan on plenty of ham Tapas and Chorizo in Madrid & Granada. Can’t wait!

[Jonathon]

Sounds like a pretty great vacation, Ham Museum aren’t words you generally expect to hear together but it sounds awesome!

[Mcduf1313]

Jonathon right it does sound strange but cured ham is highly prized in Spain.

Shakopee Minnesota and I have been grilling for a while I just recently got into sausage making still working at it and want to try my hand at making different things like snack sticks and other stuff here is a picture of my smoker and some ribs I did on it

[Jonathon]

Minnesota Hey welcome to the board, we were just up in Minnesota a few weeks ago, beautiful area of the country! Those Ribs look great, nice bark on them.

I just did some for this past weekend, I actually marinated them overnight in Pa’s Black Bull seasoning and then rubbed them with Dominator RIb Rub and they came out great! I put them in at 215° for 3 hours then wrapped them in foil with butter and brown sugar and left them in there for another 2 hours. Finally I unwrapped them and did them for another 45 minutes, I dont have pictures, I was too excited to start eating them…that or I was already late serving them to our dinner guests and my wife was yelling at me for being late with the food as usual! Anyway they were delicious!
