Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Brine
In a large pot, combine water, brown sugar, maple syrup, black pepper, and ground mustard. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
Brine the Canadian Bacon
Add the Canadian bacon to the pot, ensuring it is fully submerged in the brine. Cover and refrigerate for at least 12 hours or overnight.
Cook the Canadian Bacon
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Remove the Canadian bacon from the brine and pat dry with paper towels. Place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake
Bake the Canadian bacon in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 65°C (150°F), turning halfway through.
Serve
Once cooked, remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
