Salt Curing Our Meat—Our Two Favorite Methods

Salt Curing is something that we need more of in our lives. Just by taking any meat, coating it with salt, and leaving it in a reasonably cool environment, flavors can emerge that weren't even there before. On top of that, brining can allow you to introduce other flavors such as sweet, or even fruity. Heres how to cure your own meat at home.

Nitrate isn't a replacement for salt, it's replacement for possible botulism. That bacon still needs salt too.

How long is safe for health reasons and also for taste when curing a whole back leg because 2 years is a lot

Why the fridge? If this is an old method, they certainly didn't have fridges until recently, so isn't it possible to just leave it to drain in a cool room? If so, does it have to be out of the sunlight during the curing process? Also, once done, does it have to be hung or can it be lain flat somewhere and can it be stored anywhere or does it need a special environment?

Right now I will take advantage of salting and refrigerating. But how will we do this when there's no power?

Just after the wet brining process starts not so little sister walks by pulling on her wedgie!😂. Can’t unsee that!!!

Oh Spanish jamón melting pieces from the leg directly.
Do you guys know how to cut it? I believe there is a specific way

[jessicasmith]

I’m trying to learn how to do this. It’s a bit of a mind game for me…when the meat changes color I associate that with it going bad. It’s a hurdle I’m going to have to overcome. If you put something on top of the meat (what? Idk…) that water curing, will it prevent mold from growing?Thanks for sharing!

Nitrates aren’t bad . Your body produces nitrate

[imrayam]

Will curing work for natural climate too?

What kind of Salt do you use for salting Meat?? I have a LOT of Table Salt that is non-iodized. Will that work or do I need something else?

[bryancoverson]

Whats the best way to package to ship Salt cured meat?

[angelamonk]

Might be stupid question BUT do you eat the meat raw after cutting it or does it need cooked?

[jayengmahatma]

for dry cure, you just hang it in the room, no flys will come to your meat ? or you have some special room for that

[Likadees]

After cured with salt; how long does the meat lasted before it goes bad? Is the any method to do for the meat to lasted for 5, 10, 15 plus years?

[karenromanik]

Can any sugar go into the dry method with the salt?
Same for beef??

[cmvamerica]

Try the Dahmer recipe; put the head in fridge and cut off pieces as needed 😂

[benhur]

Why do all these videos always cure pork and no other kind of meat?

[agroplayz]
