somebody shut me the fark up.
Okay brethren brothers and sisters, here is the evidence after asking and receiving advice on using apple and cherry wood for the first time.
I decided to start with the combo of apple chips plus cherry chips.
I used 1 part cherry to 2 parts apple because in my taste memory the cherry came out stronger.
Here is the pork early on, resting in the BSKeg and developing some juices, so I hit it with the cherry and apple chips, dry.
Kept a steady 300f for most of the cook, and had a loverly whitish blue smoke happening that you can just see,
Finally, I think all the fearful overcookers of pork need to look away now.
This is the finish shot, and look Ma, I am using the fastest thermapen in ze vold!
This is pork loin, and doesn't have a lot of gelatin to keep it moist so I get it out and rest it at this temperature.
This gives me a juicier tender finish and we are well past the temp that nasties can survive through
The hot finish gets me the crackling and bark that I am looking for here.
TFO smooched me so that means it was a success.
I loved the flavours and could clearly taste both the apple and the cherry.
Such strong motivation to use cherry and smoke a salmon, in my head it tastes sensational!
Thank you for the wisdom brothers!
