Since it's cured, I guess I'm just smoking it with apple. Right?

    Spring can not get here wuick enough, we actually have gone above freezing the last two days....

    Molly,

    I am going to ask you a question that does not pertain to this thread.... When you make your pizza dough do you find that the water levels are completely off being at high altitude. i know I am higher but it takes me almost 2 cups of water to 3 cups of flour. most call for 1.5 water to 3-4 cups flour, this does not even come close for me...... I have given up on all recepies and just add water until I get the consistancey I am looking for....

    Hmmmmm . . . . I'm interested to see what you do with it. Growing up in New England it was always a good sign of either baked beans or a wicked good fish or corn chowder. Now that I have been corrupted by the forum I can't help but wonder if it might make some awesome industrial strength Pig Candy! :woohoo:

    That could be an interesting component to a throwdown. :)
