I made the Maple Cured Bacone recipe posted by TenPoint5 and it did come out wonderful. I will be doing this one again, but one of my daughters (the professional chef) isn't a big fan of maple, so I'm looking for a basic salt/cure/sugar dry cure for my next belly and smoke it with apple bisquettes.

Thanks in advance, cause I know I will get the answer very soon, you are a great bunch here and thanks for everything.

Another option for a dry cure is to make a batch of Basic Cure. You don't have to make a full batch, you can cut the recipe in half or quarter it.

You can use it as is, applying 1 tablespoon per pound, or if you want it a little sweeter add a 1 teaspoon per pound of either brown or white sugar.
