Elk Ring Bologna.
« Reply #-1 on: September 01, 2013, 03:30:31 PM »
Being I was tending to a pit today, it was also a good use of time to make some Ring Bologna.
This will be for Hot Pickled Bologna in another future thread.  ;)

Ground 5 lbs of poke through the fine plate, added the Elk, spices, cure, NFDM and water. I let this set overnight. Here it is this AM.


Using beef rounds as well.

Stuffing nicely, no blow outs! ???
Using my LEM 11lb vertical stuffer here.  Just in case Pappy was curious.  ;)


All done and drying. This was 10 lbs of meat.


And into the Bradley OBS.


Going to take these to 135ish and then poach bath. Followed by an ice bath.

Haven't had elk in way too long.  Sounds great.

That looks nice. One of my BIL's gets an elk every year... might have to talk with him this year.

Pappy - I've had that lecture, my only response is to go lie down on my piece of carpet. At least the dog gets a bed...  :'(

Sam,
That looks outstanding!  Since I just happen to have elk meat in my freezer, I may have to add this to my to-do list.

Money shot. This was 50% straight Elk and 50% ground poke butt. I think it's a perfect balance.
