Attempt #2 at Canadian bacon, salt, sugar, PP1 wet brine for 6 days, quick rinse and let dry a couple hours, cold smoked applewood pellets for 2 hours then onto charcoal bbq till internal temp of 150F. Wife says I can make more after she tried a slice, I take that as a win

  2. Looks kinda brownish. Are you suing Cure #1? Are you injecting the muscle with the brine during the curing period?

    It looks perfect. I would hardly notice anything about its appearance, which means it’s perfect.

  4. I always do a double take when I see the term “Canadian Bacon”. We call that back bacon up here. Regardless, it looks great.

  5. Canadian here. What the hell is Canadian bacon?

    Are you talking about pea meal bacon?

  6. Toronto (St. Lawrence Market originally) has “Peameal Bacon” or Back Bacon” which is wet brined and rolled in cornmeal before being sliced. It’s never smoked.

    As expats we call this “American Canadian Bacon”. 🙂

    Looks great by the way!
