Curing Meats with Jack Peele of JACuTERIE

Join Jack Peele of JACuTERIE for this demonstration class as he shares the techniques of curing meats. We will explore the theories and practices behind cured meat, as Jack explains, not just the how-to, but also some easy-to-make-at-home recipes – no fancy equipment required! You will learn what goes into the production of pastrami/corned beef, French ham (jambon blanc) and JACUTERIE Bacon (classic smoked bacon, British back bacon, and Canadian bacon), plus Jack will answer your questions about other cured meats, and of course there will be a tasting.

Even if you never intend to cure your own meats, understanding the techniques and end results will enhance your enjoyment and ability to select the perfect meats for creating a highly-curated charcuterie board for entertaining and sharing with friends.

This demonstration class & tasting is limited to ten people.
