Grill I used in this video amzn.to/3cEk3hh
The pork loin is soaked in a brine for 12 days followed by 1 to 2 hours of smoke until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit. I used a partial "Pops Brine" method, cutting the salt back and adding a few other ingredients. This recipe should cure 2 loins (about 5 pounds) or less.
So I'm new to the curing meat thing, in fact this is only my 3rd time curing anything. a few weeks ago I made "Canadian Bacon" it turned out fantastic. Wet brined for 12 days in my refrigerator at home. I am very pleased with the results. I used a variations of a wet brine known as "Pops brine" I cut back on the salt and added maple syrup and a couple of other spices that weren't in the original recipe.
5 pound pork loin cut in half
1 gallon of filtered or distilled water
1 cup of brown sugar
1 cup of regular sugar
3/4 cup of kosher salt
1 Tablespoon of pink salt (insta cure #1)
1 Tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon maple syrup.
Mix all ingredients together until dissolved . Place Pork loin or loins in brine for 12-14 days. I recommend on day 12 to slice a piece off and fry it up just to check for the saltiness level. If it's to salty then soak it in filtered water for a few hours.

I do a dry cure for a week. I keep a fridge in the garage that I use for curing. If you find the meat has got too salty, just soak it in fresh water for a few hours, and then leave the meat on a rack unwrapped in the fridge. It helps to equalize the salt. It sure looked good. I got a bag of split peas and I am going to use some ends and trimmings from my bacon for pea soup. Your bacon had great color, and it sounded like it tasted good. You can make jerky from it as well. Thank you for the video, Jaxx

@@JaxxDrinkwater I was more interested in the way you did it than looking for a shout-out. Cutting the amount of salt but increasing the brining time seems to work for you. I never think of trying a slice, but that is just me. I had some on a grilled cheese the other day. Made me wonder why I do not eat more grilled cheese. Thank you for the reply, Jaxx..

@bobboyoop1141

I'm a little late to the party but your post wasnt that long ago lol and you are SPOT ON in CB price $5.99+/lb), or even butcher shop smoked pork loin (I get from local grocery chain(Fareway in Iowa) that has full service butcher shops as their niche)which hovers around $3.49/lb +, can usually get half or full Lions from $1.74-2.49/lb! I've been looking for a wet brine for making CB which I use like ham in sandwiches, eggs Ben, pizza, etc. I always did the dry 10-12 day cure which requires daily babying and it came out ok but not as moist as store. I like to use my Big Chief for the "cold smoke" (since it doesn't heat up enough to achieve required safe internal temp), then finish in oven or boil method which I'm going to try to fully cook loin after smoking, so we'll see how that goes. Combining the smoke and cooking process as one in my "S.it Boss" vertical pellet smoker (which I converted to gas and small smoke boxes since electronics, auger system, etc had 150 degree sways and I got fed up- DON'T BUY A PIT BOSS product!) so may post a video. Big Chief is a great inexpensive cold smoker for cheeses, cured salmon and fish, etc. It operates around 110 degrees in normal 45-75 ambience temps, hotter days I point a fan at it but never use it above 85-90. Great video btw for original contributor!

@cullenbigd

My opinion, no way you need to go that long with it. That brine will soak right to the middle in less time. I make regular bacon all the time with a dry rub and 5-7 days does it. And I always soak in cold water for an hour to pull the extra salt out of the extremities. Thanks though and I will give this recipe a shot.

@RedRisotto
@RedRisotto 2 года назад
The "pink salt" that he uses is Prague Powder #1 - it's not a "salt" per se... It's a mixture of Nitrite + Salt + a pink dye (the dye is a warning so you don't accidentally get it mixed up with regular salt and poison/kill yourself because of the nitrites.) Pink Himalayan salt is not the same thing and adds nothing of value.) Nitrites help prevent botulism in a quick cure (the process in the video is too long, which why the meat is too dense.) It also help preserve the pink colour if used right... it also adds a characteristic flavour. Prague #1 is no joke - you have do some math to figure out the right amount so you don't poison yourself.
@wakeuptoBlessings
@wakeuptoBlessings Месяц назад
You are dang lucky you haven’t poisoned anyone. You need a cure. Prague #1 is a pink curing salt. Nothing at all like Himalayan salt. You really should investigate “curing salt” “curing meats” “Prague powder #1”

I never made it without injecting it. it'll still cure without injecting though. It might take longer though. That being said it takes only seconds to inject it and the injector costs only a couple of dollars and it's reusable so why not inject it to get the max flavor. If you do make it and don't inject I would be interested in knowing how it turns out for you so please get back with me.

One quick note...check your dry cup measurement vs. the wet (pyrex) measurement cup and see if they're identical..... BTW, niiiice EVO!!!
@JaxxDrinkwater
@JaxxDrinkwater 5 лет назад
I measured the salt and sugar from the same measuring cup which was the stainless measuring cup and just poured it off into the pyrex measuring cups. Not that I was smart enough to do that for any particular reason. Truthfully, I never thought of that but I get it and that makes perfect sense. I just usually do the separate container thing for video purposes. The Evo is actually not an EVO it's the Cuisinart version of the EVO and man I tell ya, I'm in absolute love with it.. I picked it up at Walmart for about $225. I've only had it a few weeks so only time will tell... Quality wise I'm sure it's not as good as the EVO but for the price, I'll take it.

@JaxxDrinkwater
@JaxxDrinkwater 2 года назад
Two things, what makes you think it's bacteria? It could be a film from fat/stuff from the pork. That being said, I have never developed a film on mine, so I'm not sure what it is. But the second thing is that bacteria shouldn't be able to grow in that environment, so if it is a bacterial biofilm, you probably don't have enough curing salt. To be safe, if you have questions..."When in doubt, throw it out."
