Bacon looks great Carolyn. I am glad it turned out well.

I have just noticed Habs query a good few posts back regarding the cure I use, thanks for your comment: It is sold as Cure 1 here and is 6.25% Sodium Nitrite and 93.75% sea salt. I think it is the same as in the USA. The difference I found in the meat taking the cure may have been due to different muscle bundles in the loin? I am not sure if a longer time in the cure would help that but it was something I thought about trying next time.
