I was intrigued by this posting by Bear: http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/244780/pork-loin-jerky-step-by-step-with-pics then soon after I was at the grocery store and found a nice "5lb" pork loin for 1.70/lb. I put the 5lb in quotes because after I trimmed it was 5.15lbs, someone had a bad day. Naturally I had to try it out.
He did an amazing job explaining his process so I will let you go check that out. See below for pics!
All in all it came out pretty good! I think I would cook them a little less(I did 8 hours), and only smoke them for the first half... a modification to Bear's recipe I think I will do is to add more sweet... maybe maple syrup, maybe more brown sugar, thoughts? Thanks for the recipe Bear! Thanks for looking.
