Some great looking cured meats in this thread. Pretty cool you guys are able to do these at home. I just got back from a couple weeks in Europe, ending the trip with 5 days in Barcelona Spain. As you can imagine, they had some pretty impressive cured pig there. Giant cured iberico ham legs hanging everywhere. Chorizo and cured sausage galore. It was definitely my kind of place. Now that I think about it, I actually didn't really eat as much as I should have while there. We did bring home several vac sealed pouches of sliced ham and several types of sausages. If I can figure out how to post up pics I have some cool ones I think you guys would appreciate.
