    Fresh batch of BBB and CB

    I figured 1 day per half inch plus 2 days for safety.. it was more like 3 1/2 inches outer diameter... I did a dry rub using diggindogs calculator with cure #1... The cold smoke definitely gave it a lighter color but a deeper smoke flavor...

    Whats your take on making bacon like this?

    Whats your take on making bacon like this?

    http://theelliotthomestead.com/2014/10/homemade-bacon/ I came across this the other day. Would the finished product need to be hot smoked since the lack of cure #1? Can it be cold smoked due to the high salt content removing the moisture?
