    I recently made a batch of salami, it is ready to munch, but I have a friend in the north island who will be visiting me next month. I really want to hand him one of the salamis, but the salami is already down to 35% of weight loss, I am worried by the time he arrive it will be too dry! I wiped it with olive oil to try and stop it from drying out more, can anybody give some advice here please. Salami never live longer than 30 to 35% weight loss, then it is gone!!!

                                YooperDog mcduffins The people on this site really expanded my favorite saying of “I don’t know what I don’t know” many times OR “You can do THAT?”. The talk will really expand your world of what you can make and how you can make it. Just have fun with it.

                                    Newbie in Stony Ridge, Ohio. I have an old, 4 x 8 block smokehouse on the property that I have never used. Time to figure it out. Ordered a couple of seasonings to try making some jerky. Here goes nothing!

                                      Welcome Jonesy. I love looking around abandoned farms here in ND. Sometimes you get lucky and find smokehouses. It always amazes me that they still have a hint of smoke to them even though they haven’t been used in decades!

                                          Jonesy I’m with Chef and would love to see that smokehouse. But first, welcome to the greatest community of meat processing enthusiasts you’ll ever find. This place is so friendly that Team-Blue had to split off of the original group ( @Walton-s key color) and now Team-Orange to try to stir the pot a little for fun. Now, it seems that there are a few people going rogue and forming their own Team-Grey… It doesn’t matter what color they identify with, they all started orange and they’re (mostly) all awesome people. But seriously, choose Team Orange then share with and learn from everyone. Austin , Jonathon and all the rest of the (insert new name here) Meatgistics users that I’ve had the pleasure of interacting with here are just frigging awesome. But the good guys wear an undefined
