    THC butter exists, but you won’t escape the weed taste.

    Chocolate and gelatin with a bunch of sugar is the only real way to cut that taste.

    Because THC is soluable in fat, you usually just make budder with it and then make something that uses lots of butter. Like baked goods.

    You might be able to infuse ham with weed; but I’m not sure how you might accomplish that.

      You can buy THCA in syringe form for filling carts and stuff. Just use the ham like a pin cushion and inject a small amount in each spot.

      Hams fatty and you won’t have an issue converting to 9.

      Steak. With garlic butter and thyme.

      Idk if the high temp during cooking will ruin the THC tho.

      Maybe only added after the steak is cooked?

      You can bind it to oils too. It’s very common to be able to find infused olive oil as well. And then, as you say, you just cook with it and now the final product is infused. I’ve seen all manner of infused foods in California.

      Also, for all the people complaining about taste, you make it from distillate/wax. All the high with almost none of the taste.

      Oh yeah, and mix with ethanol and you have infused liquor.

      They sell THC spices, no idea how you cook with those without stinking up 1/2 the block.

    Because weed has an incredibly persistent flavor that’s easiest to mask with sweets.

    You could make a THC laced ham, but you’ll have a hard time making it taste good. Not impossible, just difficult.

      Are y’all just throwing weed in oil and hoping for the best?

      You can absolutely make a tasteless cannabutter. Follow a guide.

    My bf prefers savoury stuff too and figured that, as the important part was having fat to dissolve THC, a cheese-based sauce could work. He tried blue cheese and cream sauce…it worked (almost too) well: he had a lovely dinner and got high AF

    I feel like part of this is because of temperature issues. Searing meat or baking ham is probably done at temperatures that will destroy the chemicals you want. As an alternative, if you make cannabutter with properly water cured avb, you can spread it on freshly baked garlic bread which is maybe my favorite homemade edible

    Several dispensaries near me sell THC food. They cook it on location because stuff that isn’t as shelf stable as gimmies, cookies, etc. is much more risky to distribute.

    Classic edibles where I’m from is pancakes and hot chocolate. Not really savoury but still something other than cake and gummy bears. And less effort to make yourself than cakes and gummies.

      Bit of garlic butter and some cream cheese and you can have savoury edible pancakes.

      I kind of want to do that now.
