Cured and smoked Coppa. It's really good.

I was going to go 10-12 days curing in the refrigerator but I ended up going 14. I'm not sure if I trimmed the meat 100% correctly but good enough. I messed up and put the rub on before tying it up which is why you can see it inside where the meat rolled. I actually like that extra flavor but it doesn't look as nice as it would without.

I want to do actual dry cured meats but I don't have things set up for that so for now I'll do the cured and cooked method. Hopefully in the not too distant future I'll be making actual capocollo, salami, hard cheeses, etc... But for now some Prague powder, my refrigerator, and smoker will have to do. You can still turn out a decent product and it's also much faster.

Since I already had the smoker going why not toss in some chicken and beef to make a three meat sandwich? Being the Meat Addict that I am I couldn't stop myself. I needed my fix. :mrgreen:

Just a simple sandwich. Homemade bread, three meats, sliced gouda, red onion, sliced pepperoncinis, lettuce, and a little mustard, mayonnaise and fresh cracked black pepper. No salt as there was plenty in the meat.

It tasted good so the lady and I ate it.
