    Draining liquid from bacon while curing it

    I added salt and syrup back into the bag with the bacon and continued turning until it had been in the bag for a total of 8 days. I hot smoked it for three and a half hours to 155 degrees. The smell is great and of course I cheated and pulled a little off to taste it, the saltiness was...

    Roman beans?

    My theory is to put the pods in a bunch of sea salt and paprika for a couple of days, soad them, and then hot (220 or so) smoke the for awhile, or maybe hotter with burgers or sausages.Anybody ever done them?

    Greetings from Chicago

    Long and short of it: wife won't let me smoke tobacco so I like to cook over charcoal and wood. Bacon is my favorite meat, so I have been experimenting with making bacon. I love cooking anything and everything low and slow, particularly if coffee (morning) and beer (I usually wait til at...
