A Big Ol' Pile O' Bacon

[ab canuck]

That is some beautiful looking bacon. Great job!!! I am hooked on home made bacon now, So much better than store bought. Definite like. Congrats on the carousel ride.

A few weeks ago I picked up two skinless bellies from my local custom butcher house, total about 20 pounds at $2.29 a pound. A bargain, I thought.

If you haven't made your own bacon yet, you need to. So much better than the store bought pre-packaged stuff. And a lot less expensive.

Wow!

Great looking bacon!
Great price for belly!

up here, belly is never under $6/lb.
Premium bacon is seldom over $6/lb.

I'd love to try making bacon, but it would NEVER be less expensive than store bought.... even premium!

but I'll keep my eye's open though!

Whoa that’s definitely a lot of bacon. Fine job and a definite thumbs up.

Yoiks! $6/lb is insane, even in Loonies.

There's nothing like home made bacon, that's for sure! Nice job, Braz!

I should have posted the 180 pounds of bacon we just got through slicing, vacuum sealing

Yikes! I did 60 lbs once. Only had me, myself, and I, though.
