Simple Recipe for Homemade Smoked Ham (for 10 kg of meat):

Required Ingredients:

·                Meat: 10 kg (preferably 0.5–1 kg pieces)

·                Water: 5 liters

·                Curing Salt (Nitrite Salt): 320 g

·                Sugar: 10 g

·                Herb and Spice Blend "Feliks": 1 package (35 g)

Curing the Meat:

·                 Prepare the herbal infusion. Mix the herb and spice blend with 1 liter of water and bring it to a boil. Then, cool the mixture completely.

·                 Prepare the brine. Mix the sugar and curing salt with 4 liters of water. Both the sugar and salt must be completely dissolved.

·                 Next, cut the meat into equally sized pieces and inject each piece of meat with the brine (about 60 ml per 1 kg of meat).

·                 Mix the remaining brine with the previously cooled herbal infusion and stir thoroughly.

·                 Place the meat into the curing vessel and pour the brine and herbal infusion mixture over it. Ensure the meat is completely covered with the brine and herbal infusion mixture. For the best results, place a weight on top of the meat. This ensures that the meat does not float to the surface.

·                 Place the curing vessel in the refrigerator or a cool place with a stable temperature and cure the meat for 10–14 days.

·                 After the meat is cured, remove the meat from the brine and herbal infusion mixture, dry the meat carefully (wet meat will not absorb the smoke flavor), and place the meat inside a ham net or tie it up with butcher's twine. The meat is now ready for smoking.

·                 Smoke the meat at a temperature of 70–80 °C until the internal temperature of the meat reaches at least 68 °C.

Recommendations:

·                 Always measure the internal temperature of the meat in the thickest, leanest part.

·                 Since bone conducts heat significantly better than meat, do not place the thermometer probe close to the bone.
