Alrighty, progress report. Just pulled the two with the cane syrup and root beer glaze out of the fridge and have them rinsed and soaking. One is skin on and the other is skin off. I cured it based on SconniQs recommendation. They will be ready to go on tomorrow night.
The third one was a little thicker and I used the process meathead published with the maple. I will pull it tomorrow. Excited to see the comparison. It's been a long wait it seems!!
