Some Honey Cured Bacon

[love the smoke]

You Bacon Makers ;D  get ready.

I order a case of pork bellies (4 @ approx 11lbs each) that will be here this coming Tuesday or Friday (his two delivery days)

And I will need some help!

If you dont mind me asking what did you pay for your belly, I just picked one up today at the local butcher shop and noticed as he was weighing and ringing up I paid just as much as finished bacon in the display cooler just below the scale . 3.29 /pound

Love the smoke.  Last time I bought them the same way CRG did...4 bellies @ about 11-12 lbs.  I paid 1.38/lb.  That was from a local meat/restaurant supplier who also sells to the public here in Central Florida

The bacon is sliced and in the freezer.

First the country brown meat side up.







The honey cured meat side down.







The country brown on the left and the honey on the right.




Now I need to find some more bellies before this batch runs out. Got 4 lb of each in the freezer and 1/2 lb of each in the fridge and the trimmings waiting for a place to go.
