I am hoping for a little input here, so this never happens again.
I bought a case of bellies from my butcher. They were frozen so I thawed them in the refrigerator.
We got three pork loins from Cash and Carry.
I weighed out the meat
9lb belly
1 oz of cure per 25 lbs of meat
9/25=.36
.36*28.3495231 Grams=10.205828316 grams cure
I did this for both bellies and loins.
After rubbing each piece of meat I placed them all in a meat tub, bellies fat to fat and loins on top.
On about day 8 when i went to turn them, they smelled of a hint of rotten meat, I let them go until day 10 and they are rotten.
Any ideas what happen,.
I hate wasting 60$ ion meat.
