Thanks for the link. Yes, the bacon was dried very well, with a good pelvic le. I put fans on the bacon for 1.5 hours prior to smoking to form the pellicle and allow them to come to room temp.
The AMNPS worked spectacularly. I never thought I would be able to use my WSM to cold smoke so...
Smoked it today. AMNPS went for 10 hours at 80 degrees. Ambient temp was 70 degrees.
Also threw on some cheddar on a propped up disposable pizza pan with holes poked into it
I fried up a little giblet of the spicy bacon, fresh off the smoker. It was extremely smoky, but it did...
Ok so today I pulled them from the cure and gave them my standard rinse and 1 hr ice bucket soak in a large cooler (most people seem to do a half hour, I find an hour on any other meat I've cured to be ideal so stuck with that).
A couple pieces for salt test. A couple things I noted,
1)...
Nice, I just did a bag. I used 3 tbspn Worcestershire, 2 tspn cayenne pepper sauce, and 3 tbspn of Jeff's rub. Smoked for 90 minutes at 250 with Apple pucks. No pics because it is dark out, did it as the inaugural smoke on my clearance 2 rack bradley.
Just whipped up a double batch of the Q sauce, I only use half of the pepper and cayenne in it and it is still quite hot when it ages for a couple days. I use it like katsup, hence why I put it straight back in the Heinz bottle (plus a half Mason jar for the leftover rub.
Nice price, have you made bacon from frozen belly before? If so does the water loss from thawing make a difference? I assume the answer is no, because of how it is sliced then fried.
The recipes sound expensive, but after buying and using them. I would much rather have the money I spent on all my other runs and sauces back. I had never found a recipe that matched or surpassed the premium commercial products, until I tried his rub/sauce, they far surpass any commercial...
I linked to the web page. I don't have a manual that I saw. However I doubt they mess around with the Nitrates/nitrites stuff, imagine people going to the hospital or dieing because of a link they sent you to that they did not properly vet.
The question then becomes is 150ppm nitrate (which is...
That manual with the no nitrates was revised in 1995. The website that uses nitrates that they refer you to online was last updates in 2006 and the USDA website bacon page was last updated in 2013. One can therefor deduce that they read the web page they are sending people to and are aware it...
