why do you wrap them in saran wrap before vacuum sealing them?  my wife came over and looked at your whole process.  she wants to get some dry bags also and try this.  I like the color myself.  thank you very much for showing us your process.  I think muebe had done this before also.   :-\

If you fellows are going to try this then I would suggest buying the thickest loin possiable. There will be shrinkage.

I found the 1" thick streaks to be to thin, prefer 1 1/2"

Look for the post by Muebe, he has how to vac the bags down pat. They won't vaccumn the same as a regular bag.

Heading north to give you a second opinion ;)

You are most welcome Pappy. I might be down to the big city first ;D

I have no doubt you will notice a difference in taste, but...  I hope you will have someone blind test them for preference as well.

Actually have three couples feeding off these 3 loins


dude, i'm right behind ya.  look in your rear view mirror for a blue F-150.  ya, that's me.   :)

I'm not 100% sure I believe it was on another thread and now I just do it.
