Was able to keep temps around 100 to 115 for most of the smoking using a snake of charcoal with a mix of pecan cherry and Apple. Around a 6 hour smoke. First time doing a cold smoke and cured belly.
Yes the meat was cold. Looked like a hole through the meat where it was coming out. Definitely looked just like jelly if that helps. Myoglobin sounds right.

Is there any worry with botulism or harmful bacteria forming when cold smoking cheese? Are there any guidelines to follow like the 4 40 140 with meat? Thanks

Hi, is it normal to have a strawberry jelly like blood coming out of the bacon?
While slicing, I had some oozing out. I hot smoked.

Hi, just curious as to why ham, prosciutto,etc sliced at the deli counter doesn't last as long as jerky or bacon? I'm sure it has something to do with air exposure. When these meats are whole and sitting, they just cut off the mold that forms on the end?
If I'm doing this dry cure with the honey and such...am I supposed to factor in the weight of these to achieve the correct ppm? Or just go by the weight of the meat.
