    He can't see your post, so I hopped over to the old forum and put your link out there.

    Whenever you see that real dark bold print, the posts are coming from the old forum.

    Hope this helps.

    Right on the money!

    Bacon, Canadian, From Kansas, KS Cheryl


    Ingredients
    1 3-4 Lbs Pork loin
    maple syrup (for injecting)
    Curing mixture per pound of pork loin
    1 Tbs Morton’s quick cure
    1 Tbs dark brown sugar
    1 Tbs turbindo (raw) sugar




    Procedure
    1 Start with boneless pork loin roast. I look for the leanest ones. I trim off fat. Then inject it with maple syrup.
    2 Place in zip lock bag with the cure mixture in refrigerator for 5 to 7 days.
    3 Remove from cure. Soak for 30 minutes in cool water, pat dry.
    4 I inject again with maple syrup. Refrigerate uncovered to dry slightly before smoking.
    5 Place in egg at 250 to 275 indirect with drip pan underneath. Smoke with your favorite wood ( I used sugar maple) until it reaches 170 degrees. I like to wrap it in foil and slice it when cold.
