    How long did you let this cure? Site says 5-7 days. Some let it sit for up to 14 days. Curious. Bacon makin stuff arrives tomorrow.

    PapaSop You are going to be totally hooked on homemade bacon once you try it.

    Think I’m already hooked. Already planning for the other half of this. Perhaps some cracked pepper.

            PapaSop my two bellies are in the smoker too, been there for a couple of hours in the cold side. Was ready to take a picture but my brother called from Dallas and I lost my train of thought this morning.

              PapaSop Jonathan used the Waltons mixed pepper on some Canadian bacon and said it was good but I have never tried it on anything yet

                  Well. Kicking myself for never trying this before. It is as easy as everyone says. A few pics.

                  PXL_20211114_161532540.jpg PXL_20211114_162551084.jpg

                  Tried a couple different thicknesses.

                  PXL_20211114_170002591.jpg

                  Done! Some sample packs for the kids to try.
                  Not going to lie. Papa is rather pleased with himself right now.
                  Next one will be with cracked pepper. processhead you’re right. It is a nice break from grinding and stuffing.

                        PapaSop I’m glad it worked out for you. I did about half the belly with black pepper on top before putting it in the smoker. I kind of wished I would have done it all. Either way, its fun and rewarding to get it done. Yours looks awesome.

                          Dr_Pain You don’t need a dedicated smoker, you can do it on your pellet smoker. I do all mine on my Traeger.

                            That’s good to know. I’ll have to look into the time/temp for the pellet

                                      Dr_Pain The Traeger number is BAC350. It may not be available anymore . Google search it, Traeger says it is unavailable, so places may still have one in stock

                                        Well. Kicking myself for never trying this before. It is as easy as everyone says. A few pics.

                                        Tried a couple different thicknesses.

                                        Done! Some sample packs for the kids to try.
                                        Not going to lie. Papa is rather pleased with himself right now.
                                        Next one will be with cracked pepper. processhead you’re right. It is a nice break from grinding and stuffing.

                                          HAHAHA, she likes charcuterie and cheese more than she likes smoked meat. I think this would be a harder sell
