My first attempt at homemade bacon recently was what I'd have to consider a success, however, it turned out a little salty for my wife's and my own tastes. Can I safely cut down on the table salt in the recipe to lessen that aspect or not??
1 gallon water
1 c non-iodized table salt
1c white sugar
1 c brown sugar
1 tbsp pink curing salt (InstaCure #1)
allowed meat to sit in this brine solution for 2 weeks in fridge, then smoked in smoker per Meatheads rules (about 2 hours, until internal temp was 150)
good, but a little on the too salty side for our preferences, remedies???
