Don't mean to be rude or anything but using Hilly Billy and Butt in the same sentence gives some of us that [:0]DELIVERENCE[:0] Kind of feeling. Good Luck!

Where I live, late in the evenings on a full moon you can still hear banjos. I just lock the doors and load the Duck Gun.

Well I had the BBB curing in the fridge for 12 days and smoked on Sunday. I soaked for two hours prior to smoking but I am finding its a little salty. Its not bad enough where I have a problem with it but I wish I would have rinsed again and soaked another hour or two. It is deliciously flavoured though.

I thought I read somewhere that someone rinsed their bacon prior to frying it because of the salt. Is that something anyone has tried?

Dude of Phone,

If you want to try this again. Go to:Butcher-Packer

There you will find a couple good cures that will not leave such a salty taste to your cure. And cheap. This is all I use now, I first stared with BBB but then found this, like finding a good women-I never went back.(Boy my wife would be proud of that, comparing her to cure) The only problem (that is minor problem) is that you must weigh out the cure and for that you will need a scale that reads in a resolution of two decimals-100ths.

I have a digital table top scale. It has been very useful.

Phone Guy,
If you are mixing BB cure with water and you find it to salty, just use less cure next time.(or more water) Just keep notes so you know what amounts are working best.

I just rubbed it on dry. Maybe I missed something but I thought it was a dry rub. I'm not home right now to recheck the instructions. I'll check asap.

Phone-ster,

It is dry. Just rub it in good. Just remember to turn the meat like it said and DO NOT WORRY about the fluid it will cast off. LEAVE IT ALONE, you do NOT have to drain it off. Depending on the particular piece of meat it might have alot or very little fluid. I use a a good Zip-Lock Freezer bag now, that works perfect for this. The directions that are over on the curing area is just about the same as the BBB. You can fallow those and it will turn out fine. If you have any questions please let me know, I love this stuff-Bacon[:p].
