    This stuff is stringy, rubbery, and impossible to hand split in the middle where still pink. I split it on the press and my eyes started to burn and nose run. Smells like apple cider vinegar or whiskey or something. Desert mountain climate, dead for years, 36” dia.
    Ended up hand splitting off the seasoned brown rind and gonna let the rest sit out and cure
