First Dry Rub Bacon Attempt
-
Bob Stehlik I love the H Mart in Denver. Took my grandkids there. What an eye opener for them. Great place for Korean ingredients.
wdaly Best assortment of fresh fish in town. I live close to the H-Mart @Yale & Havana. We go at least twice a month. They always have something different to try.

Dr_Pain lost two of the 3 jams I ordered. I let Walton’s customer service know via their email. I checked my emails a few minutes later and had a new order email pop up to replace.the two jars. Talk about great customer service.
GWG8541 Have always found Waltons has great customer service.

processhead - I go there all the time, I have never seen them. I will ask one of the butcher’s next time I am there.
lkrfletcher COSTCO has been the only place I have found them recently.

PapaSop glad to see you made a great product. I usually make one covered in coarse cracked pepper. Sometimes an extra soak or two will help remove some extra salt. If you like it spicy try some jalapeno or red pepper in your rub.

Apparently we ran out of bacon in the freezer, so I told the wife to pick up a pound at the grocery store for a new recipe I wanted to try. WOW, in our sheltered life of processing our own bacon and sausage we had not realized how much bacon had went up. Moral of the story do not run out of processed meat and check your freezer inventory today. Yes I currently have 3 half bellies curing now. What is really odd is that the pork bellies are still the same price as they have been for months and the boston butts have actually dropped in price.

mrobisr I still cannot get the bellies & after the butts went back down to normal in price, they have now gone way up again. I don’t recall ever seeing swings like this. Everything else is up at least 10-20% or more & it seems & beef is higher than that. I don’t know where the politicians are getting that they are worried that inflation is up 4%.

calldoctoday I agree and beef prices have reached the level of insanity especially considering I know the on-hoof price. I am getting ready to make a few batch’s of sausage and have switched to briskets for my beef portion because it is considerably cheaper than chuck or any other cut.

mrobisr Brisket is good, but way too high here. When we moved to this area about 20 years ago now, we found that brisket was $2-$3 per pound vs the $1.25 per pound we were used to & much harder to get. It has crept up to $3.89 to $4.50 pre pound now. Funny thing is it had already crept to that level about a year or so ago & has not really gone up much more like other beef has, including chuck. Skirt or even Flank went from $.99 for skirt & more for flank for us & easy to get, to just about impossible to get & over $6 to as much as $9 per pound. Insanity is the word for it.

lkrfletcher Went to COSTCO this morning and they had whole pork belly @$3.99 lb. A 9.57 lb. belly was $38.18 . I wanted to get one, but no freezer room at this time.

Bob Stehlik - Thanks - I will be there tomorrow to take a look. Will probably get a couple and freeze, so I can look back at posts and research.
