Title: Tying Canadian Bacon!
Post by: Friar_Tuck on November 26, 2011, 06:06:00 PM
I enjoy making Canadian bacon, and it seems to go fast around here.
The only thing I had trouble with was keeping it round.
Not that it affects the taste or anything, but I just wanted to try to make some that looked more like traditional CB.
I think I found it!  A bit of butcher string, and away we go.
The other bonus is, with them hanging I can probably fit40 Lbs or more in the Beast!
Here is fresh out of the foil wrap, I will get a money shot after a day or so of Saran wrapped in fridge.

Your tying looks good. I like that look better than the netting. I tie my Canadian bacon all the time, but your tying looks perfect.

I guess I'm lazy, I do not tie or hang. just use it however it comes out. It all tastes the same.  :)
But I do admit the rounds look more like you get from a store, nice job.  :)
