No, I've created this course so you can use salt, meat, and your regular kitchen fridge or a conducive place around the home. It also includes options for setting up a charcuterie fridge or DIY style at home.
The course starts you on small, inexpensive cuts specifically so you learn the process with low stakes. You also get exact formulas, auto-calculating spreadsheets, and direct access to Tom if something looks off mid-cure. Most failures in home curing come from guessing. This course removes the guessing.
You can find pieces of it, yes. The problem is those pieces conflict with each other, and with meat curing, following the wrong advice costs you a lot more on wasted meat or safety risks.
This course puts 20+ years of hands-on experience into one system: safe formulas, tested ratios, step-by-step video, and someone to ask when your batch doesn't look right.
The students who get the most from it are the ones who got tired of stitching together random videos and hoping for the best.
