The pork belly skin is removed before the pork is salted and held in a tub of brine for 10–14 days in a low-temperature and high-humidity environment. The brine is usually composed of salt, nitrite, ascorbate, spices such as black pepper, chilli, garlic, juniper, and rosemary, and sometimes nitrate.

Meat is soaked anywhere from 30 minutes to several days. The brine may be seasoned with spices and herbs. The amount of time needed to brine depends on the size of the meat: more time is needed for a large turkey compared to a broiler fryer chicken. Similarly, a large roast must be brined longer than a thin cut of meat.
For the meat to 'pull' properly, it must reach an internal temperature of 195 to 205°F (90.5 to 96°C); [1] the smoker temperature can be around 275°F (135°C). Cooking time is many hours, often more than 12 hours (though much shorter with electric pressure cookers, typically from 60 to 90 minutes).
Pour the brine into a bowl and add the pork tenderloins, then cover and refrigerate overnight. Preheat the oven to 450°. In a small saucepan, combine the vinegar with the shallot, thyme and ...
When brine is room-temperature, add brats and soak for 3-12 hours. Remove and reserve onions and peppers. Pour brats and beer mixture into a pot, season with a pinch of salt if needed and bring to ...
Smoking helps seal the outer layer of the food being cured, making it more difficult for bacteria to enter. It can be done in combination with other curing methods such as salting. Common smoking styles include hot smoking, smoke roasting (pit barbecuing) and cold smoking. Smoke roasting and hot smoking cook the meat while cold smoking does not.
Sliced gammon. Gammon in British English is the hind leg of pork after it has been cured by dry-salting or brining, [1] and may or may not be smoked. [2] Strictly speaking, a gammon is the bottom end of a whole side of bacon (which includes the back leg); ham is just the back leg cured on its own. [3]
