The Conversation

The Restaurant Guys chat about all things charcuterie with Michael Ruhlman author of Charcuterie: The Craft of Salting Smoking and Curing who shares how to make some of the most delicious foods on earth including homemade bacon!

The Inside Scoop 

The Guys are huge fans of charcuterie and are thrilled to talk to Michael about his book.

 This is how he describes the final steps in making salami.

“Then you stuff it, and then you hang it, you tend it carefully and, and, and pray to the God of charcuterie and hold your cross up at the evil molds, and hope that it dries properly,” Michael Ruhlman on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2006
