First attempt at bacon

[hanifen]

Got the shoulder rubbed in the cure and in the fridge last night. I am using the Buck Board bacon cure from High Mountain. Any tips or things I should know?

I only did about 6 pounds for a first run to see what it is like. In 10 days I'll smoke it, slice it and fry and see how it is.

Hi-Mountain's directions are excellent Hanifen, just follow them and that should take care of it. Be sure and let us know how it goes.
