    Were getting closer,,,, on Sunday it will be two weeks in the brine,, plan is to pull from brine, pat dry with paper towels, maybe put on some CBP on one piece, White pepper on the other, and last piece just bacon,,,, Well them first two may have some garlic powder on them???

    Then they will sit in the fridge one week to form Pelical then off to the smoker....

    Plan is on the smoking to cold smoke with cob pellets on Super Bowl Weekend.

    1st piece smoke for 8hrs, 2nd 16hrs and last one 24hrs I think that will give me a good idea how much smoke I am wanting on my next batch.

    After smoke is done,,, they are to go back in the fridge for 5 more days and then slice and vac pac..

    Sound like a plan???

    Any input would be great,, let me know if I am doing something wrong

      That seems like a pretty long process but the results will be interesting. when I do it it's a total of 9 to 10 days to the freezer but then again I've never brined

        Ya I think to BUT what I have been told that 5 day wait after the smoke really does something to the flavor and texture

        I will find out and let everyone know
