I just watched the video of Bone Marrow Burgers, first let me say thanks for the research and follow up on this as I’ve been so interested.
The recipe in the video looks and sound super will try and can’t wait!

I have the a Himalayan Salt Slab, but really didn’t know how to prep before cooking or clean it, so I have only used it once.
Thanks for the education on how to use my salt block, great video.

I have found that putting some vinegar or lemon, will definitely help with the smell, but I have found that the addition of either or helps soften and make the casing more pliable and much easier to work with.
After some trials, I’m hooked on using lemon juice, about 1/4 a cup per qt of water.

Hey Everyone, I go by the name of Forkinpork. I been coming to Walton’s and Meatgistics for about 4 months now, mostly as a watcher, learner and product buyer. But now with spring in full wing and giving my sausage equipment a rest and heading for the grill, I decided to step up my game and join in on all the fun and chatter.
I’m big into sausage making, both fresh and dried cured in the fall and winter months, and come spring time BBQ is my game.
I’m a life member of KCBS, as well as a certified BBQ judge, and I play around a bit and enter a few BBQ comps, just for the fun of it.
I’m also, big into hunting and fishing and I do all my own processing.
Well I’m looking forward to chatting with you all, as well as reading your posts, in hopes I will learn more and I sure I will find some delicious recipes from you all.
Thanks for reading and Hi!

Hey Jomathan, this is great news, look forward to seeing the new videos and I’m really liking the cure conversion chart, boy will that make everyone’s life better.
Once again, keep up the great work, I got some orders coming in as sausage making season draws close here in Connecticut.
Thanks Forkin Pork

Jonathon LOL What can I say about the bread, maybe it’s the water??? I love my trout fishing especially on the Farmington River, big fish! My bother in-law is a competition bass fisherman, so I get to fish with him a lot. Love my Q

O Boy!
My wife goes here we go again, that time of the year.
But I did tell her things are going to be different this year, as this year everything is coming from Walton’s.
She was surprised at my game changing plans, but did say she is really looking forward to see what I have in store for this year.

I’m looking to make things easier this year, and I have faith that Walton’s with bring it on!

Well up here in Connecticut, the fall and winter weather is just around the corner, and I’m glad it almost here.

Some might think I crazy, but fall and winter is when I do all my sausage making. I make sausage fresh and cured and I also love making sausages of different types and styles.

After watching every video and reading many posts in this forum, I’m so excited to get started and try new recipes this year.

Going to try and make life easier this year, and try some of Walton’s pre-mixed seasoning for summer sausage, brats and snack sticks like pepperoni and the alike. Also, to make matters easier, Walton’s will be my one stop shopping depot.

Thanks all for your posts and input, let’s get started.

Thanks for the info on using beef fat in place of pork. Whenever I harvest a deer I do make a lot of sausage and never thought of using beef fat. It’s really good and will give it a try. Hopefully I will remember to post my results.

You crack me up Jonathon, what wrong with making sausage, bacon, and hams, this time of year?
I’m sure you will agree that the cooler temps are in our favors and if you totally knew my set up you would agree in what I do.
It’s a long story about my operation and what I do to cure meats, some of it may be questioned by you and others.

The bottom line is, we are on the same page about things, only I use some ol’ Time family tricks and/or methods.

With all that being said, Walton’s is on the money with information and how too, so I have nothing bad to say about that.
I have just a few different ways of doing things, but I’m going to start incorporating some of your ideas and methods because they make a lot of sense when it come to food safety.

I’m also going to try this year, for the first time ever, some of your pre-mixed seasoning products.

I like what you do and feel that, what the heck, lets make things easier this year and try what you have to offer, as far as pre-mixed seasons for fresh and cured sausage, snack stick and jerky.

I feel it’s gonna be a good year and I will keep you and everyone posted!
