Only have a pound or so left from my first batch. I made some in Pops Brine and some with TQ/Brown Sugar. Liked the TQ method more. Was cold smoked for varying lengths of time, 7-14-21-28 hours. All with Maple pellets. The Boss wants me to use Apple pellets this go around. Unsure of the time I will be using yet. I have started using Pacific Pellets. Web site says they are 100% natural, no flavors added. In the AMNPS in the bottom of the Egg with the vent wide open they smoke heavily. One row in the AMNPS burned for over 6 hours. Very well may just smoke for 28 hours.
I remember some folks talking about adding Maple syrup/extract to the cure, not having any luck finding the right threads. Wife doesn't want anything overly fancy. Hmmmm....
May just pick up a belly from Costco to try the Pacific Pellets out, would hate to pick up a 15 pound belly from Cash & Carry, smoke it for 28 hours and have it be to much...
Any suggestions would be much appreciated....
