There’s a myriad of recipes available on the internet yet many just say something like “rub in sea salt and cook for two hours until done. Add liquid smoke if you want to.” To me that’s just seasoned pork; ham is soaked for days in brine, then slow smoked until done. And it’s PINK!
I did an eight lb roast for Easter last year and it came out great. However, even after following the recipe, the center still was just pork.
I’ve got this year’s roast soaking for another holiday meal. I bought an injector, hopefully that will help.
Next is the two pork bellies in the freezer... where’s that :licking: icon when I need it?
My biggest decision was to use Prague’s #1... as much as I would like to avoid nitrates, I really don’t want food poisoning. I’ve already tried that and didn’t like it.
I’m sure that TnAndy has some good recipes, and other members as well. Care to share?
