How To Make Maple Cured Bacon At Home

[Sanders]

I just did a pork loin using a recipe very close to this one in order to make Canadian bacon. I cured it for 2 weeks, though because of the thicker piece of meat. A vacuum sealer makes it even easier.

I use a brine cure like that for a lot of things. My basic recipe is 1 gallon of water, 1 cup of salt, 1 cup of sugar, and 1 oz of pink salt.

For bacon I let it soak for a week in a 5 gallon bucket in the fridge, then smoke for a couple hours.

For corned beef I add a handful of pickling spice. To turn it into aome awesome pastrami cover it with pepper after boiling for a couple hours and smoke it.

For ham I inject it all over, let sit for an hour and then smoke.

Instead of smoking the loin for Canadian bacon try slicing the loin and frying it after curing. Irish rashers are better than Canadian bacon.

Sounds good! Mine came out tasting like one of those honey-baked hams, which isn't a bad thing to me.
