    PapaSop I split the difference and did 6. I also soak/rinsed an extra time. I like salty stuff, but it turned out great. Not to salty at all if you follow everything and soak/rinse it well. Good luck its easier than I thought

      I like to bag in the fridge also. I have not done a bacon but all my pastrami/Montreal smoked meats are bagged in the fridge for the cure, massaging every day and flipping them.

          PapaSop How come your box look so good, mine are always smashed and the tape broken. We’ll see what my box looks like on Tuesday after seven days on the road from Wichita. UPS doesn’t do well, but I see it coming SurePost via UPS so they will blame any damage on the Postal Service despite being handled by them all the way to the Post Office.

                        Great knife. Just glad to start using it. Surely didn’t want it to get damaged.

                                GWG8541 I think some of the drivers think Fragile is Italian. Looks like they could figure which end was up either from the tag because it looks like it was sitting on the ends.
