So I've had a 8.27lb slab o bacon from costo curing in my fridge for 13 days now, and it looks like it has reabsorbed most of the juices that hsd come out. My question is, is it still safe to cold smoke? This is only my 2nd time makin' bacon and i dont wanna make anyone sick.
Any help is appreciated. Thanx guys

If you used the proper amount of cure #1,you should be good to go

No issue. Many non-consequential things can happen. More moisture concentrated there longer or less than another spot. Bumps,bruise,natural discoloration. You are fine...JJ
