    So I broke down a pork loin into thin chops that I will be doing char Siu style, thick chops and a sirloin roast. Thinking I will do at least some of the thicker chops and/or the roast sous vide but wanted to dry cure and smoke something. Was thinking of doing a dry equilibrium cure kinda like I do for belly bacon but wasn’t sure if that would be better done to the roast or to the chops. Also read a lot about brining and debating doing that. My past experiences with brine have been salty so was leaning toward dry cure and vac seal for a few days. Plan to smoke at least briefly after cure so I was thinking a roast may not dry out as much. I have never injected meats but open to that idea as well as it means I can by a new toy. Curious what your thought are?

      Surg I inject my loin roasts then sous vide them to 130 degrees and finish them either on the grill or oven to 140 to 150 degrees. The chops I would brine
      and seal in a bag if you are looking for something like a ham chop. Got to let them sit for at least 6 or seven days then rinse them a couple of times and give them a light smoke, then grill.

                Dr_Pain They are really good! I added high temp ghost pepper cheese in them. Spicy but not over bearing. Might be my new favorite!

                  Was debating the Mandarin teriyaki. Was thinking I would do half a batch for the fam and add some high temp ghost pepper cheese for a sweet and spicy kick for myself and friends. Anybody have opinions of the mandarin teriyaki.
