Steps:
- Trim the pork of all excess fat and cut it into strips about 1 inch thick and at least 4 inches long.
- Mix together the seasonings and place in a shallow pan. Roll each strip of pork in the seasoning mixture and place on a tray.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (preferable a couple of days).
- Prepare a smoker. Place the pork strips on the grill or rod (whichever your smoker uses) and smoke until done, 5 to 7 hours. Don't let the smoker get too hot.
- Remove the meat and let it cool completely, then wrap well in plastic and foil.
- The tasso will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 10 days, and it also freezes very well.
