5.0 out of 5 stars informative, handy, with large scale recipes, February 23, 2005
By 
rkchin (new york city) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Guide to Canning, Freezing, Curing & Smoking Meat, Fish & Game (Paperback)
This book teaches you how to safely---with large emphasis on safety and hygiene---prepare, and store meat using a wide variety of canning, freezing, and curing methods. The text is well-illustrated with diagrams of equipment (including sausage makers, and smokers) and methods. There are plenty of helpful tips, and handy charts indicating how long a product should be heated per pound (with time adjustments when cooking at altitude). The recipes in the book are massive. Most require 100lb of meat, pounds of salt, and gallons of water; a few handful of recipes call for 3-10 pounds of meat.

5.0 out of 5 stars for the carnivore in you!, September 20, 2002
By 
Rebecca Brown "rebeccasreads" (Clallam Bay, WA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A Guide to Canning, Freezing, Curing & Smoking Meat, Fish & Game (Paperback)
Join the generations of hunters in the wild & in the aisles of local supermarkets who have learned to can, freeze, cure & smoke meat, fish & game with this simple, safety-conscious primer about making beef jerky, bologna, cured turkey, bacon, corned beef, pemmican, clam chowder, & much, much more.

It will also turn you on to other ways to prepare your meats, & fill you with satisfaction when you look in your freezer, on your shelves & in your cupboards.

Very glad it's been re-printed - my ancient copy was getting unreadable!
