I haven’t done any meat curing the last couple years and I decided this year that will change.
I started this a couple weeks ago but had to continue when the process required.

After the 15 day brine the loin was rinsed and dried off and placed in the fridge uncovered I had to go two days because of events happening.
I smoked it at 180 degrees in the pellet grill and add a smoke tube for added smoke. I pulled it when 155 degrees was reached. Once they cooled down some I wrapped them up and left them in the fridge for a couple days before slicing.

The bacon is for breakfast sandwiches and homemade pizza and to share with the kids and friends after I cure the rest of the pork loin.
One sandwich on English muffin and a bagel ( I like the English muffin best and I add jelly to the sandwich)

I recently cured my first Canadian bacon using boneless pork loins. We really like how it turned out and yours looks great, as well...
