trim butt, put in zip lock baggie with molasses and liquid smoke, coat the meat, add all of the remaining ingredients to the bag. Let cure 2 weeks turning every few days. After 2 weeks, rinse with cold water, then allow to sit in cold water 2 hours, drain and pat dry. Let come to room temp ~1 hour or so, smoke at 200 F until internal reaches 140. I choose to smoke with applewood....... yum yum.....
