So, I thought about this question of never having enough bacon fat on hand. What about salting then cold smoking pork back fat? Render that down and you basically have something very similar to bacon fat. Thoughts?
Well they taste good but a little tough to bite through. Thinking I either A. Didn't have enough bacon or B. Overcooked them. Overall I will definitely try this again.
First time doing a cure....first time for buckboard bacon.
I mixed my rub/cure, covered the meat, bagged and threw in the fridge.
Now I patiently wait..... except I just realized (my wife reminded me) that I won't be here when the 14 days is up.
I will be home after it cures 16 days.
Is this...
...with the smooth side down, rough side up, and cover with mozzarella cheese.
Fold the thigh together with the cheese on the inside. Wrap with bacon. Sorry I forgot a picture of this step, but you can see it later on.
It was raining buckets, so I went with the Traeger using the 0-400 method...
They look great… just a suggestion…. Maybe back the temp down to 250*ish and see if that more to your liking. A bit slower cook I think would benefit you… Kinda like an ABT… give the bacon some rendering time vs cooking too hot. Just an option… but again looks mighty tasty!

...can go in the smoker at 250F for 90 minutes, but they can also be made in the crock pot on low for about 4 hours

I did a 19 pound load of Canadian bacon today. The family loves Bearcarver's recipe. This takes me to 360 pounds of it over the years. Dry brined it with Morton Tender Quick, sprinkled it with garlic pepper seasoning and smoked it with a blend of apple and pecan pellets. Didn't get any in the...
Whatever, the chemical reaction going on there, the bacon is still safe from the point of view that it is cured and cannot support abt bacterial growth. If that's your main concern then carry on.
Secondly, if you're concerned the "electrolysis", if that's what it is, may contaminate the meat...
