i like this batch better then the last one i made..better flavor..was planning on smoking this last sunday but had a bad case of the flu.. used motrons tenderquick and 8 days cure ..about 6 hours smoke time..enjoy ..mike
Mike that really looks good. I have not tried to do bacon yet!No friged room to cure yet but hope to get another one soon!! Thanks for the q-view!!!!!!!!!
Looks great! I've done the canadian bacon before but I used HiMountain buckboard bacon cure. It came out great. I've never been able to find Morton's tenderquick in my grocery store...
great looking bacon Mike-I use buckboards myself-works wonders-I keep mine in chubs till I need to slice-keeps the flavor under wraps.and ya 2 weeks ago a loin and after 12 hrs. dang good bacon
WELL AS I READ ALL THE RESPONSES..THANK YOU !!
now for the questions..as i stated i have had a bout with the flu ..so i didnt get to fancy with this.. just tenderquick..i know boring to some but when ya feel like chit its hard to want to creat something..next time i will probably feel better and will give it some extras.. however this does have some great flavor..after stopping at the grocers on my way home i saw they are charging $6.29@lb for canadian bacon.. this pork loin cost me $7.51..about 4 1/2 lbs..probably 50 cents in tenderquick..and maybe a buck for wood chips .. very cost saving..lol ..for those of you looking for a first time bacon.. if you want to try some extras .. i highly recomend cowgirl..aka patty..she has some wonderfull ideas for diffrent ways to make bacon.. enjoy ..mike
