Ground meat if cooking at low pit temps or cold smoking them a cure is called for and I would use as directed based on weight.

Jim IMO you have nailed the issue. Cooking L & S exposes the outside to 200º+ temps which prevents bacteria growth EXCEPT on those parts cut and exposed to air (and bacteria) as in boned or ground meat.
