Salt-curing wild game????

[noflyzone]

I'm interested in curing some venison ham and pork ham in a dry salt/spice rub. I can't find much for a blend in any cookbooks. I need some ideas!!!

I have ate some pork that was dry rubbed for a week, then rinsed, and smoked. It came out almost like a jerky but holds a little more moisture and tenderness.

Thanks,

Check out my post in this section;Smoked Wild Boar.I've tried this with both deer and hog and it comes out really good.

Just did some hog backstraps and ham with this and it was great.

where can I buy Morton's tenderquick

It can be hard to find.I found mine in the seasoning section at the grocery store and have not seen it on the shelf since.You might ask your store to order it for you.I've used it to make jerky with for years and basicly use the same method as I do the ham only cutting it in thin strips.
