I was just reading about that last night. Think that is the way to go for the belly. Thanks fellas :handgestures-thumbupleft:
Amberale when doing loin do you also inject?

Second hand food grade buckets.
Vietnamese bakery’s 10L $5.00 or Barnacle Bill 20L $5.00 - $10.00
I like the 10L for brining chicken, fits in the beer fridge easy.

I ended up getting the 5l ones from bunnings for chicken. An i vac bagged the bacon with dry brine. All worked out good :handgestures-thumbupleft:
Friday I smoked the belly and loin some bratwurst susage and some salmon was a sussesful day :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Cospak sell a range of containers. I use a 10l food grade pail for my honey. As per Plasdine there is a minimum order of about $100 or so.

Cheers

Sorry Bluc, I’ve been busy and missed this.
I don’t inject very often.
It is mainly used by competition teams as they have only one mouthful to convince the judges and need to pack in as much flavour as possible.
That said, I have injected loin when making Kassler or Ham Delux as the loin can be very lean.
I use a sheep vaccination gun that I had left over when we got rid of our sheep with a meat injector needle attached. :O)
