3. Take out and knead one more time then make 4 (14×2 inch) logs.

4. Put them on a cookie sheet with 1-2 inch sides.

5. Bake at 300 degrees for 3 hours.

6. Take out and wrap in wax paper with aluminum foil around that.

7. Refrigerate until well chilled.

8. Serve by slicing and eating alone or with crackers and cheese.

9. NOTE: When rolling logs into shape, make sure you knead the meat and form a tight log so there’s no cracks forming while baking.
