Might just have to keep her !!!


Going to cut in half, one half will get smoke tomorrow and the other half is going in pops

brine for 14 days for Canadian Bacon

here a link to pops brine http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/110799/pops692 7s-wet-curing-brine


The one going in the brine is right at 5lbs



I did add a 1/2 cup of garlic power to the brine and cut the salt down to 1/2 cup


Mix the brine and in it goes. Seem like I forgot something

Now I remember what I forgot. Got this fancy injector and forgot to inject the loin with brine.



And also forgot to trim the fat off the loin.


Not the best job trimming the fat off.


see ya in 14 days

To be honest, I think I know a lot.  Thankfully the older I get, the wiser I get, and the more I realize that no matter how much I know, there is more I don't know.  I never knew that Canadian Bacon was made from pork loin.  But now I know more than I did when I got up this morning.  Thanks.  I can't wait to see the finished product. 
 
Very Nice!!!

How much brine did you inject?

I need an injector like yours

Mine has the sharp end, and need a blunt end with lots of holes

Where did you get it?
