I bought a loin and followed Bears' recipe and in the fridge it goes for 2 weeks, I didn't measure the loin but I can't smoke it for two weeks so that will be more than sufficient time to brine .I did weigh for proper cure though !


     Picture to the right is the loins after a massage this am, thanks for looking!

Great start Moon!!

2 weeks is fine!!  Wouldn't hurt to do a Salt-fry test on a slice or two after removing from cure, just in case.

Be Back.
