homemade bacon
« on: May 20, 2012, 07:16 AM »
Finally got around to making my own bacon and boy am I glad I did ! It was fantastic ! Got a 12-13 # pig belly from a butcher and used a dry brine for 7 days. (followed the recipe in the Charcuterie book ) Smoked it to 150 degrees and after cutting off the skin and slicing it, i had about 9 pounds of the most delicous bacon I've ever had. I took pics,but have to learn how to post them.

Sounds great, just did up my first batch ever today.  Going to be a tough week to wait i think.  Hope it turns out as well as yours sounds.  Cant wait to see pics.

There are only two types of truly happy people in this world, married women and single men.

I hope that's the one. Ordered it from my local library, but there were two with the same title.
