Greetings from the Philippines

Hello! I'm Steve, currently residing in the Philippines, but originally from the USA.  My wife and I both love to cook.  While pastry is her passion, anything in the kitchen is fair game for her.  I tend toward smoking and curing meat.  I do my own bacon and fresh ground sausages.  It started out of necessity since real cured bacon was hard to find where I live.  Once I learned to make my own, I really enjoyed the process and branched out a bit, smoking turkey, making cured pork chops, and so forth.  I also do a bit of sous vide cooking.  

Two of my brothers-in-law have gone to college for Hotel/Restaurant Management.  And my wife, a special education teacher, dreams of being a chef and culinary school instructor.  I found this place while searching information on brines and am very impressed on the thoroughness and wealth of information offered here.  I look forward to exploring more of the site and doing some of the course work as well. 

Mabuhay!
