I have a recipe for canadian bacon that I got from another forum and plan to use for starting the cure this weekend for smoking next weekend. Plan to brine cure a couple of pieces and dry cure a couple. If someone out there has a killer recipe they'd like to offer up, I'd love to have it to use. Any other suggetions also appreciated. Planning to use quick tender. Thanks much.

"Canadian Style bacon" as it is commonly referred to in the U.S. is a backloin without the cap, cured and smoked like a ham. So basically a pea-meal bacon without the coating, and smoked to an internal temp of 140'ish to emulate a cured ham.

Some lower quality manufacturers of the product are now using trimmings, emulsifying that concoction with a cure, and squirting into a tube to cook it and giving it that round tubular shape.

here is a link to what we accept labeled as "Canadian Bacon" in the picture it is numbered as "1"

and here is a picture of what I had made from an unfortunate mistake of purchasing an enhanced pork back loin and salvaging it to not just toss it out. it is a fully cooked ready to eat product as marketed down here.
