Cured for 24hrs then smoked for a further 12 😋

Tasted as good as it looked, though obviously I’m incredibly biased…

“Cold smoke to Hot roast”

From the initial cure, to the wash, then too the smoker (bit of history) this bad boy is built in the depths of a WW2 bunker)
-
After resting its off to the Hot roast before chilling then packing
-
The whole process from start to finish takes around 72 hrs, the fire is freshly set 🔥 each time according to the wind speed, so the stronger the wind the bigger the fire (more draw) to enable a sufficient smoke time
-
We also still follow the very same traditional methods handed down through generations, albeit with a proper big oven !
