How to Make Homemade Canadian Bacon - Recipe -
Ham brine (from scratch)Joe Hell hello.
I do not them all the time.
Brine
1 gallon of stilled water
1 cup brown sugar
2/3 cup kosher salt
6 table spoons of pink #1 cure salt
Mix brine and do a 10% injection of brineSo you will weigh your meat and take 10% of that weight and that’s how much brine you will inject in to your ham. Then take your remaining brine and put your ham in it and let is soak in the refrigerator for 7 days turning your meat once a day. I also use this for bacons as well when I have the time .
But if you do have the time the excalibur ham and bacon cures from waltons are the best I’ve ever used. I use them all the time.
