I am considering doing home made bacon! I see that the pink salt that is suggested on the free side is no longer available on Amazon. What brand of nitrite salt do y’all use. In a little afraid of getting a scam product off Amazon.
Cookers:
Oklahoma Joe Offset (older thick steel version!)
Camp Chef Woodwind
OK Joe Bronco
Weber Genesis
Ooni Karu
Weber Kettle
My goal is to eventually have at least one of every style of cooker….. I have work to do. Lol!
Thermometers:
ThermoWorks Thermapen MK4
ThermoWorks Thermapen ONE
ThermoWorks Thermopop
ThermoWorks RFX
ThermoWorks IRK-2 Infrared
Maverick XR-50
TempSpike Plus
Other Gear:
Megaforce 3000 Meat Grinder
Weston 7-pound sausage stuffer
Jerky Gun for making poppers. (Game changer!)
Amaz-N-Tube
Original SnS with drip n griddle
Weber Chimney
Fuels Used:
Splits/Chunks, whatever I can get. Usually B&B competition. Favorites are Cherry, Apple, Post Oak, and Hickory.
Pellets, Lumberjack.
Charcoal, whatever is on sale. Currently have a bunch of KBB. Will eventually try B&B. Use whatever lump is on sale in my Ooni.
Propane, Blue Rhino.
Rubs:
Usually make my own riff’s on Memphis Dust and BBBR. Also use Meathead’s commercial rubs and occasionally try something new. I like a couple from Tuffy Stone and Kinder’s. After several surgeries, I’m very sensitive to “spicy” stuff, so I need to be careful about heat levels.
This is the stuff I use. I’ve never tried any of the other brands, but I’m sure they all work. I’ve used this both making bacon and also making sausage.
Exact one that is in my pantry, last purchased in 2019... I noticed a little clumping last time I got some out to make corned beef or something cured, but it still worked just fine.

I have same, but I think I bought at a local brew store that also sells cheese making and other whatnot. I used to get from amazon, but I went in there for some cheese stuff and picked it up.
