I'm going to brine for 3 days then smoke to make a ham like with it. I think it's aka canadian bacon. Anyone that has made this have any tips? I injected the meat with the brine and have it soaking in the fridge now.
Brandon, evening.... You mentioned brine and Canadian bacon above.... Did you add cure# 1 to the brine ?? If so, three days may not be enough time for the cure to totally penetrate the meat..... After the brine, rest the meat for a couple days, bagged and in the refer.... That will allow the meat to equilibrate the salt and cure etc. for even distribution and uniform taste throughout.... Dave
