Cured up some Pork loins

[chopsaw]

Found some whole loins for a good price , $1.29 / lb. Bought 2 froze one . I like to put them in a net , but this time I went without . Cut in thirds , used TQ , brown sugar , and liquid smoke in each bag . Yeah ,,, liquid smoke . It's ok .
Went 14 days in the fridge , then rinsed and back in fridge over night .
Hung in the smoker at 130 for 2 hours . I used 12 " tube with oak pellets and wood chips mixed in . I saw Dave use some mesquite on a ham , so I did the same . Gave this a nice dark almost red color . Not to strong at all . Tube ran for about 6 hours . Came out pretty good .

Took on some color pretty quick

I like when it has the lite and the dark meat . Bearcarver Tender Quick is the way to go on loins for me .

Thanks

Beautiful color! How do you generally use it? Breakfast fried ham?

Looking great Chop. I have some curing too along with hams and bacons. I might net mine and hang them when I smoke them.

Looks like it came out pretty good. Nice Job. Why the added liquid smoke?

Point for sure.

Looking good my way of doing Canadian style bacon the Bears way. I find it very easy to do its just the wait that takes so long. But then good things come to those who wait. :D

Thanks Scott . I don't like to fry it . Makes it to dry for me . I just heat it thru with my eggs in the morning , or for a breakfast sandwich . Eat it cold with mustard and Swiss cheese on fresh bread . I take it to 150 to make it safe to eat .

I love the nets . Just changed it up this time . I've got another whole one in the freezer , gonna do the " injection " on part of the next one .

I had the same problem. Now I turn up the heat, add a little olive oil and quick sear about a minute each side to keep it moist.

It's more for the smell , I don't see much in the way of taste . 1 cap full in each bag .

You are so right ! I love to just snack on it , but a thick cut just heated thru with eggs is a great way ,,, to go sit back in the chair all day , lol
