Thanks. It looks real good. Taste is Ok, nothing great. It is like a ham, but not real smoky. The meat is so lean, with zero fat. It is not as tender as we hoped it would be.
Actually, like a ham, without the ham flavor.
Even with the 24 hour brine, and pulling at 142 IT. And the one hour rest in foil, in a cooler. We expected it to be much more tender.
It will get sliced up super thin for sandwiches. And it will be used as an ingredient in my wife's to-die-for Ramen Noodles (she is from Tokyo).
