    Pancetta

    So I took on a task of making pancetta. After hours of reading into different techniques, I challenged myself. I form a standard cure with cure #2, just in case I was willing to risk botulism. I got a 5lb pork belly, vacuum sealed with the cure flipping everyday. After 7 days, I wrapped the baby...

    Hi Folks, James here from CT. Been using this site for advice on smoking and decided to join in and share my experiences with you all.
