Bacon

[waz]

Another outstanding round of making bacon! Nothing like Niman pork belly and a bradley smoker. Pics were from my third attempt (forth I added maple syrup to the cure, another outstanding batch).

Brother Bill,

I can usually find mine at a grocery store or Wal-Mart.  Usually Wally World will have them.

I find mine the same places as SD. I don't know what area you are in, but in my area either Price Chopper or Shop Rite always has them in stock.

Thanks guys for the info! I'll try Wal- Mart.

How many pounds of pork belly did you start out with and do you adjust the cure amount by pork weight?
