    I see that there is another thread, similar to mine and also question the amt of cure.... I guess I will throw it all out... urgh, what a disheartening thing.  If one cannot trust a recipe book, then why put one out?  I take safety very seriously, but also one should be able to trust a book...

    Newbie needs help, Nitrite Burn? or bad meat? *Pics*

    Hey all, forgive my length of post but here is my situation/background.  I am fairly new to smoking/curing. And I have only done one prior pork belly.  I am following the recipe from Rytek Kutas book for honey cured bacon, but this time I deviated slightly.   I am on day 6 (its ready to smoke)...
