More Cured Pork Chops

[MacKenzie]

I started curing 4 boneless  pork chops for 4 days and then forgot the day I should smoke I was going to be away and that's not all! I washed them out and then went to bed forgetting to take them out of the water, they were soaked for 2 hours more than I wanted, yikes.

As if that  wasn't bad enough I left town on the say that they should have been smoked. We are on a roll here.

Today I smoked them and here they are- 

They are moist, tender and very tasty, talk about luck.

  They look pretty tasty to me

Thanks, Bruce, I'll send you one.

Looks great.

Sid the extra soak take away too much flavor?

[MacKenzie]

Tinyfish, I think it did, these were less ham like than the last batch. Although they were still really tasty. These were Costco chops and the last ones were Berkshire. Only way to know for sure is to them again with the normal soak time. Aaaah shucks, I have to do more:) I should do 4 more and finish 2 with a 4 hour soak and 2 with 6 hours.

Wed. I went to a get together that was had a craft theme. At the end of the night we came home with a bag labelled KRAFT. When I opened the joke was on me:)

The pork was fantastic and so were the veggies

Scored some nice pork belly at Costco this week. Will be trying my hand at bacon after the Thanksgiving holiday.

That is great news, Tony. I'm looking forward to your bacon caper:)

"All's well as ends well" is the old saying and it looks like your chops definitely ended well!

Congrats, Mac!
