Two whole Pork Loins cut into thirds.  Two pieces fit perfectly in a gallon ziplock bag where they are dry brined for 4 days, then 24 hours cold water soak to pull out some of the salt, 24 hours in the fridge uncovered on racks to develop a dry skin and then lightly smoked with hickory @ 225F until 150F internal. Cheers!!!

Quite simple and old skool actually.

1T morten tenderquick per #

Sprinkle on meat

Put in large zip lock bags, flip meat daily for 5 days

End of day 5 rinse, and put back in fridge uncovered overnight

Day 6  8hrs of cold smoke (usually hickory, and a fruitwood)

Day 7 slice and package.

You should be careful about posting pictures like that, given your proximity to Pocatello, Idaho.  You're liable to have a crazed homebrewer/bacon fiend in a kilt show up on your doorstep.   :D

(great looking meats, btw!)
