While reading the lunch meat thread, I thought I would throw this out there--it sorta has to do with that, but more inline with my search to smoke meat without the use of nitrates nitrites. It seems everything I have read says they need to be used. Since I would like to make my own jerky, sausage, pepperoni etc with our own deer meat, does anyone have any recipes to make it without the use of nitrates/nitrites? Pepperoni is a luxury in this house, but we love pizza. If I could only make it, and make it healthy--that would make all of us happy.
We have held off on the purchase of a smoker simply b.c I can't find healthy recipes.
any experienced smokers out there?
