@NPHuskerFL Really just the color. There was a lot of juice in the bag from the meat. I dumped that. The reason why you rinse cured meats is because there's an excessive amount of salt on the outside (needed to drive salt inside the meat). In this case, I salted like I would have if smoked, and the salt that would have been concentrated on the outside was diffused in the meat and juice.

Makes sense & it achieved desired results as well. Good on ya man.
