Mixed up a gallon of Pop's Brine. Changed it a little, reduced the salt to 1/2 cup, the white sugar to 3/4 cup, added some whole peppercorns and a TBS of pickling spice as well.

Have a pork loin with a sell by date of 10 December, so I want to get started curing ASAP.

I boil mine and let it cool before adding the cure, and I'll have it in the fridge this evening.

Will I be ok with the sell by date if I let it cure for 14 days from today?

Thanks.
