    Bacon is a pretty easy one to get right. I don’t think I’ve had a batch yet that has come out bad. There’s a bunch of fat and you’re not cooking it to 190-200ish like pork shoulder or a brisket or anything.

    Just follow the steps and it’ll be good eatin!

    I’ve made "a few" batches. I’m going on 250lbs or so this summer alone. 400ish lbs last year. People at work love it and have no problem buying it from me. Click image for larger version

    I would make sure to go LOW and SLOW. There is a lot of sugar in the recipe and you don't want it to burn. So take your time, enjoy the aroma and marvel as your bacon turns into a lovely, lightly-charred, golden piece of heaven.

    Can't help with the recipe as I use Rhulman's recipe. I will say; do NOT skimp on the quality of your plastic bag(s) for curing. Zipoc (2 gal.) freezer bags are what you want. Keep the closure clean while filling so you geta good seal, or else it will get messy! Have fun and enjoy! Oh yea, the whole process may (will) be habit forming!!!

    Doing some bacon soon...

    Hey folks,
    I got myself some pork belly yesterday and plan on starting the cure later this week. I plan on following Meathead's recipe(s). I want to draw from your experience... Any tips or tricks you have learned along the way? Anything I need to be aware of going in?

    Thanks! 😁
