Pop’s brine scalable?

[SmokinEdge]

Any brine is scalable period. I’ve ran the math and posted a thread on the concentration of Pop’s brine for user information. I’ll post the link. I’ve also personally ran the math on the same brine with all ingredients in half, concentrations are all exactly the same.

For some reason I can’t post a link but you can search it on the site.

That was pretty presumptious. Great way to start off here.

In what way was it presumptuous?

Thank you all for your responses. This is the conversation I was hoping for when I posted.

Overwhelming support for not scaling it, so that’s what I did. Dumped the brine and started over. Better safe than sorry. As someone mentioned, the brine is cheap. Pork bellies aren’t— around here at least. $5.99-$6.99/lb.

And a couple responses that it IS scalable. That’s the way I was looking at it— mathematically, it shouldn’t make a difference. In my rookie mind at least.

Again, I appreciate most everyone who piped up. Thank you.
