Started with a 2 pack of butts. Butterflied and got the bone out.
Cured for 10 days using Morton's Sugar Cure. Soaked and rinsed then placed in pan. Placed pan under fan for a while to work on pellicle. While pellicle was forming I rubbed each piece with a very light coat of maple syrup.
Fired up both ends of the AMNPS with a mix of Todd's cherry and pecan pellets. Would've done straight pecan but I'm getting low. Guess I better order some more from A-MAZE-N Products. Cold smoked for around 12 hours.
Took on some nice color.
Let sit in the fridge over night then into the freezer for a few hours to toughen up for slicing. I was very happy with these slices as they were long and had some nice fat marble throughout.
IMHO the fat gives awesome flavor to the bucky.
Thanks for looking.
