SonofSanfordandSon Posted October 30, 2011 Report Posted October 30, 2011 I couldn't wait for the cure to finish, so despite the faint smell , I decided to go ahead and cook three pizzas for my family. Can't wait to smoke this pork in my fridge. I'm trying to figure out the timing--if I start now, I should be done by lunchtime tomorrow... Also, I have to recommend this puppy for lighting it: http://www.amazon.com/Bernzomatic-19425 ... 380&sr=8-1 My nephews were in awe. One issue -- I wasn't sure whether or not to use the heat reflector. It cooked a bit unevenly, probably due to the coals being lit better on one side. But it tasted amazing. Frank Pepe I'm coming for you.
slu Posted October 30, 2011 Report Posted October 30, 2011 Re: Cooking despite curing I recommend using the heat deflector, and heat sinking the baking stone well in advance. 650 - 750 is your baking range, but only after your break in period.
