Anybody have suggestions on cutting off the skin?
I used this knife and lots of patience
There are several videos that can help
Some folks opt to cure with the skin on - you need to use less cure if you do this. Then after hot smoking, the skin will peel off easily. At least that's what I've been told, I never tried it that way. Be sure to save the skin for cracklins.
I think most of us buy bellies with skin off cause it's pretty hard to skin them well.
