second go round for honey maple bacon

[love the smoke]

Just put the second batch of bacon in the fridge with the Honey maple cure from sausage maker on it

The first batch was so salty it was not edible left it in the cure for 9 days (my bad)

Any way this batch will come out after 7 days, If I take a slice off of the slab after the cool water rinse and fry it but it still seems salty can i soak in water longer to get rid of some of the salty taste ? As long as I do it before it is smoked correct ?

Yes.

I would soak in 30 minute cycles until you get the taste you want. (or you get full  ;D)

Yep do the 30 minute soaks or until it is gone. Who would get full eating Bacon? not ME
