Bought a whole loin a couple of months ago and didn't have time to deal with it so I threw it in the freezer. Now that the kids are back in school, I've got time.
Trimmed and cut it in to 4 equal sized pieces. One was cut in to chops that will be for dinner tonight. I used TQ on them and will be smoking them later.
I used equal parts TQ to whatever else I decided to use for each of the CB. The bag gives directions to use 1T per lb of meat so each piece was weighed and then the proper amount of TQ was mixed with an equal amount of additional ingredients.
The first one is using TQ and my rub, the next is TQ and Splenda/Brown Sugar blend, the third one is using TQ and ShooterRick's Snake Bitten Chicken rub (I love the stuff!).
I will be flipping the bags over every day and am planning on doing a fry test on day 5 at the earliest. Might let this batch go to day 7 and see what happens, not sure yet.
