    Welp, it has a slightly different texture than traditional pork belly. The flavor was decent, don’t think I would really buy it again. The bite through was a little tough compared to pork.

      EDaniels Please reduce the size of your picture files to about 40% and they will upload. I open pics in “paint” and reduce size fromm 100 to 40. There are many other apps to reduce. But, that’s what I use.

          EDaniels I know you will. But, if you don’t, there’s a number of us on the site that can assist with the reduction.

                It does sound appealing however I would venture of a guess that the fat is not as buttery and light flavored as the pork version.

                    I mean what could go wrong here, I have been eye balling this product for a few months now. I haven’t pulled the trigger on it quite yet…

                        HerbcoFood I make beef bacon all the time. Simply use the Walton’s dry rub bacon cure follow the directions pretty much to a tee. Instead of pork bellies I use whole brisket in a bag, trim off excess fat season let set in fridge for 5 days rinse dry and smoke to internal temp is 130-150 slice package eat! Good luck!

                                HerbcoFood I won’t go out of my way to spend the money to make it but as my buddy Andrew Zimmern has said many times, you have to give it 2 tries, even if the first bite sucks (I paraphrase)
