So I lived in the UK for about 4 years and fell in love with British Bacon (it's kinda like 2 bacons in 1, US and Canadian in texture but with a nice run of fat around the length of the thing). There is a single butcher within a 45 minute drive of me who sells pre-cured British Bacon at a very high cost, but one of the things I want to do often with my new smoker is make my own bacon. There are plenty of recipes to follow for US style bacon, but I can't find a recipe for American terminology AND smoke. There's a few great articles like the one I will link that is just a wet cure and no smoke and I would assume that after that part I just follow the smoking practices used for US style?
1. What do I need to tell a butcher in NC (assuming slang and cuts vary by even US region) I want to get the correct cut of meat? The article below has one option, but it's fairly wordy when there may be a better way to describe it to my butcher.
2. Does anyone have links to a recipe with smoke, maybe a different brine? Have you done it yourself?
3. I'll share what I make in a few weeks, and actually have some British expat friends I can get an unbiased review from
