Picked up that for $1.90 a lbs, 8.28 lbs total:$15.71 seemed like a good deal for here. Not sure what I'll do with it yet.Saw it in the store and the wife must have seen the gleam in my eye and the quiver in my body cause she just said you better get that you "big smokin retard". God I love her. What is this cure#1 & 2 and the MTQ. I have never heard of it till I got on here. Do I need it to CBB.
I like to walk threw life on the path of least resistance. But sometimes the path needs a good kick in the ass.

OBS
BBQ
One Big Easy, plus one in a box.

Oh you need the MTQ or pink salt or whatever
Its tough to find here in the great white north.  I had some MTQ smuggled in from Buffalo this week.
Good luck
All I wanted to do was slow smoke some ribs.  Another addiction created thanks to the Bradley that requires regular servicing...  But what an addiction to have.  Even better to share here with some of the best people on the planet.

Would you like smoke with that sir ?

Quarlow,
  Cure #1 is what some call 'pink salt'. If you have cure #1 then you can make your own MTQ. But either way you need one of them to make bacon.

Ok the search is on then.

Here is a brief description of the differences:

This page is still being updated with information on Saltpeter, but what is currently there is accurate.

Habs,

As always; good, concise, useful information.  When you post, it is something I can always rely upon without further review or research.

I am using your Canadian Bacon instructions as we speak, I mean type.

Thanks for your time.

Good luck and slow smoking,

Pachanga
