Brined Loin with salt, sugar, and 2.4g/kg Prague#1 for 4 days. Pumped approx 25%

Soaked in fresh water two hours, pat dried, air chilled 32 hours w/ turn.

Smoked loin at 250 until internal 145.

Brushed with soy sauce, and honey.

First time curing. Approaching too salty, think needs less brining time, maybe 48 hrs.

    On the too salty note.. Do you think the Cure would be sufficient with out any pumping for such a small piece of meat? I tried making a ham of a shoulder recently, and it was entirely too salty after brining and pumping. Considering not pumping at all for the next go around.
