mballi3011,
Are you saying that if there is no Q-view that it didn't happen?

Well if it ever did happen, whats the reasoning behind the HOT water, I don't think I have ever seen that in a recipe.
Thanks for the recipe I was just thinking of making some jerky and this sounds pretty good

Ok, Ok, I get the message, Qview to come a little latter this morning! Good Grief! I come here for some peace and quiet and it's the same stuff I hear in the kitchen, makes a person feel,,,,,,,,, right at home.

Dan McG,

The HOT water helps the spices dissolve and the flavor to come together, I think of it like making coffee, cold drip just don't taste like hot drip

 

[DanMcG]

I was thinking that after I posted. But you do cool the mix before adding the meat right? Thanks

 

[ga pine needle]

Yes, I mix up my spices first so there is cooling time, by the time it's stirred and everything it's cool enough that it doesn't do any cooking to the meat of which is usually coming right out of the fridge.

Qview!

I can't ever seem to find the spice I want!


These will do, I'm using TQ this batch but I'm going to try another batch with Sugar Cure in a little while.


Out of the fridge after overnight.
