However you decide to prepare it with the rub, brine, etc., just make sure that you let it rest for 30-40 mins.

When I buy them I freeze them seperately. Takes about 18 hours on the countertop to conpletely defrost.

FYI, that's usually very unsafe way to defrost meat.

Obviously you aren't dead yet so you might be immune

Thanks again for all the input!

I went with the Franklin method on those YouTube videos y’all shared. I added some turbinado cane sugar to the rub and injected it with apple juice and a little Worcestershire sauce. I finished it off by adding some honey and Head Country bbq sauce to give it a nice glaze.

The bark came out great, imo. The final product was amazing. Wife and her family loved it and my wife isn’t a pork person.

I could make several meals off that bark.

I was very pleased with it. First time i’ve used mustard to help create a good bark. Worked like a charm.
