    Thank you Meathead!! (or: Makin' Bacon - The Results Show)

    I just want to thank Meathead for his INCREDIBLE bacon recipe. I have made bacon a few times, but this is the first time using this recipe / method.

    This is BY FAR the best bacon I have ever tasted - bar none. I used Apple wood for the smoke. Here's the picture for you food porn addicts out there.

                Yep. I follow the recipe exactly too. It's easy. Just takes time to cure.

              Went exactly as the recipe states. Morton's kosher for the salt. The main thing is patience and flipping them over in the fridge every day. Pretty simple as far as I'm concerned.

              Just fried some up for breakfast - AWESOME!

                  Hey Scott! Where did you find the pork belly? Costco? Also, did you see my post about "Octoberfeast"?

                    smokinsteve I did find it at Costco yesterday. (Matthews, NC location)

                    And I saw the post, but forgot about it. I just replied. Schedule away!

                  Just bought some belly today. I think I am going to try an asian flavor this time. I plan on staying with the regular recipe but I am going to add a few things. I am going to add some ginger, soy and five spice to the mix.
