Been a while since I was on here last. Decided to try my hand at homemade bacon. I must say it came out very good. So good in fact that I am currently smoking my second batch but this time I’m doing maple brown sugar.
Recipe for 1st Batch:
5lb Pork Belly
1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
1/2 Cup Kosher Salt
1 Tablespoon Coarse Black Pepper
1 Teaspoon Instacure #1
I did a 7 day cure in the fridge, flipping the zip loc bag once daily. Smoked over cherry wood at 175* until IT reached 150*. Wrapped in plastic wrap and refrigerated overnight. Sliced thick by hand with carving knife.
