I was thinking about cooking a cured smoked bacon piece to about 205 and pulling it and making pulled bacon egg and cheese sandwiches. Defrosting a belly now to cure. Might reserve a piece for that.

They will be fine. Have you had Pork roll before? Some central PA grocery chains like Giant have pre-sliced Taylor's. It is not real smokey...JJ

Beer :)- Maybe some red wine vinegar?

Why no port? It's very minimal.

I'm not a wino either! Beer Beer Beer Beer!

With that said, port is used in quite a few sausages, and the bottle will keep. Linguica uses about a 1/4 cup... Just saying.

I buy the stuff that's in the $5-$9 range for sausage making. Just depends on what's on sale...
