After applying cure and trimming 120 pounds of pork bellies this afternoon. It appears that the bacon packs I've been giving away for a couple of years blossomed into orders for my bacon. 120 pounds puts my resources at the limits and I already have orders going into the end of September. Got the bellies at Restaurant Depot today.

THATS WHY I DONT DO IT......
if i wanted a job i wouldnt have retired. its nice to give people a treat BUT i have no interest on performing like that. takes the fun out of it for me. people are constantly asking for me to make them this or that and i just say no.

a butcher just down the road from me says he did 40 custom cut hogs last year and i can have all the bacon to do... NOPE... but i will make yours i told him.

good luck on your endeavor !!!

What I make I give away, if you want some and your are a friend, meat donations are apprceiated but not even requested. Its supposed to be fun. Its cool you can make such good bacon though.

That's a LOT of bacon! I hope you enjoy making it, and I hope the people really appreciate how much work it really is.
