Hello All,
New to the forum to ask a question I have researched and found little on specifically. I purchased two pieces of pork belly frozen from my butcher on Tuesday, about 3.5 and 3 lbs, and wanted to start the curing process right away. I kept the frozen belly in my fridge for a few hours then applied a dry rub cure that night, while it was still mostly frozen. It is two days into the cure now. Did I waste my time applying it while atill frozen or will the cure take? Thank you all.
