Thank you Gary. I think my current knive has started rubbing a nerve in the knuckle joint of my right index finger. It hurts like when you hit your elbow, we call that the funny bone although there ain't no funny there.LOL
Looks Great, nice job You don't have to slice mine I'll do it when you drop it off !!!!
Gary
Thank you C-man, there is just something almost mystical about making bacon. It releaves my stress, it relaxes me, its almost like it takes you to another level. When I was younger I did it playing guitar, then playing pool, then.... a long road trip with the windows down, hair blowing and some cranked up tunes. Now I have come to making bacon....LOLGreat thread Foam and great lookin bacon.
I need to make more but I have 4 loins curing now.
You need to try bacon, you need to make a crackling pork. ZOMG, that would be right up your alley! I bet you have already and call it some sexy island name. I couldn't believe I had never had it when I tried making it last week or two weeks ago (I have lost track of time). Thats like eating liquid love! Cracklin's too! Cracklins and some okolehao, drink yaself blind! But what a way to go!
Once ya make your own bacon, its no longer an option. And you got 2.00 bellies? Man..........
Doesn't everybody?Okolehao? How do you know about Hawaiian moonshine... [emoji]128526[/emoji]
Thank you but I have another question for you. Pig skins? Can I boil, scrape and make fried pig skins out of what I cut off my smoked bacon?
That double smoke does make my mouth water.
Kevin I think that will work,you may loose a little bit of the smoke flavor. As long as you dry them they will puff up nicely,let us know. Gets thinking cap umm, boil-dry in smoker UMM.

Never made pig skins and its an interesting idea. Those I cut up and put in the beans were tender really fast, so I am guessing they didn't dry out much if any.
Thank ya Bear.
Nice Looking Bacon Foamy!!
Must be Mighty Tasty!!
Great Thread too!!!
Bear
Look in the barns maybe ya have them already
Thank ya Bear.
Its good bacon too. I impressed myself and I been to a state fair, 3 county fairs and 2 goat ropins, not much impresses me anymore. <Chuckles>
Damn I gotta get a slicer, and a vac sealer.
Actually in the big box with the pressure canner I found a "Meal sealer" It looks about 30 or 40 years old and I doubt it even works. Nope no slicer, that I would remember.

Thank you Dave. Looking forward to it.
Great thread. Just did 2 more bellies myself. 1 in pops brine, other bears recipe only maple sugar. Feller does have withdrawl systems when no curing and smoking. Hate the slicing myself though. Good lookin stuff you got. Sending a pm.
Thank ye kindly. I still gotta find a way to thin slice the bacon, and when thats done of course it needs packaging. It just never ends. LOLDad gum Foam, that bacon looks good enough to eat! My God, my arteries are clogged up just looking at it. Oh, oh, oh yea... Definitely cardiac arrest coming on!
Great Job!
