buckboard bacon

Sorry it took so long to reply but your new postings did not show up new on my end~~ go figure.

I smoke it from start till the last hour in the T-Shirt. Then I remove T-shirt. Very important make sure to turn it over 1/2 way through the cook. This will help with coloring.

No those are not "sausage turtles" they are the fingers of those who ask foolish questions. Ta Da! *Chez looks around for lost fingers* ....hehehehehe

Well after much reading (and some more reading) I have finally decided to give this a try. I ordered my BBB cure today, also a jerky variety pack just in case.... I may try and do some "regular" bacon with this as well.

I believe that this may just be the longest ever post on this board. How 'bout it has there been any others that have reached 6+ pages.

When in doubt smoke it.

Well there may be a good reason for this thread being so long, the end product is outstanding. I just completed the annual familly fishing weekend and what a weekend. I bagged several 3-5 pound Walleye and treated the whole clan to some BBB, I had made up special for the trip. Boy am I the cats PJ's. The whole clan has not stopped raving about it, in fact I have several orders to produce some for everyones freezer.[8D]

Snapper -You are just bragging after a good round of golf if the BBB was really that good you would offer to ship some to your fellow smokers on this forum.[B)][:0][:0](can't hurt to try)[:D][:D][^]

I'm with you Snap,
I too had great comments on my BBB. We went camping with 2 other couples and I provided the bacon for breakfast. Everyone loved it.

Carefull what you ask for Kirk.... your mailbox may overflow with samples.

When in doubt smoke it.

SAMMY C · June 03, 2004, 05:27:00 PM

Going back to MSILER -if you count the bacon thread which started as a Buckboard bacon discussion this thread spans 10 pages. Thats pretty impressive for the Bradley forum. Let's keep the communication on all topics alive! [8D]

msiler · June 11, 2004, 04:51:40 AM

Hey All,

My BBB Cure arrived and I have a but and a small tenderloin curing as we speak.... One question if I want to make Canadian bacon out of the loin what temp should I smoke it too ie.. safe to eat as is like store bought canadian bacon.

Now for the fun part trying to ignore it for 2 weeks....

When in doubt smoke it.

 Bassman,
Nice pics, good lookin' bacon[:p]

You used Buckboard rub. Any variations ie curing time?

Please elaborate on the Smoke. Flavour, temp, cook time to reach internal temp, also what internal temp did you reach?

PS - Anyone in Canada find a retailer for this stuff? I've got two places I have found in Lethbridge that carry Hi Mountain, but it's only been the jerky cures and one place carries the poultry brine, but no one has the Buckboard. I even contacted Wholesale Sports in Calgary and they don't stock it either[:(]

Sometimes you just gotta keep digging. I dropped into Wholesale Sports again yesterday and found the BBB. Even though I contacted both stores in Leth and Calgary two times each, no one knew what I was talking about. However, with the box in hand they can check the SKU number and tell you that it is a regularly stocked item and available at all stores and online[}:)][}:)][}:)]AUGHHH[:(!]

Anyway just an FYI for anyone here in Alberta who wants to try some but not order out of Wyoming. I think it was 6 or 7 dollars CDN.

Now I just gotta get my hands on some butts and loins and get rubbing!

Just to save Kirk the time (you're on your way to Kummoks right now) insert joke here:

"Atta boy whitetail, but when are you gonna start talking about smoking?"

I'm really pumped about getting going on this bacon based on all the reviews thus far.

Anyone have a favorite puck for BBB?

I've only made bacon once and used hickory. It was excellent. Next time I'm thinking Mesquite or maple.

Jack

MallardWacker · June 23, 2004, 04:07:36 PM

White,

I have done both with hickory and maple. My vote is for maple.
But:

However I've never experienced this while iv'e been making BBB, maybe I'm missing something, maybe to many nitrites or something>>>

"get my hands on some butts and start rubbing"

This plural thing has got me wondering.

AND

"I'm really pumped about getting going on this"

I realize smoking is the next thing to nervana and I do get a bit frisky when I smell pork and pecan in the air but.....

White, I'm glad you are around, you certainly make day sometimes.
