Title: BACON!!!!!
Post by: MacAttack on May 11, 2014, 09:34:24 AM: I had 10 lbs of pork belly that I haven't smoked yet so decided to put it on the smoker today. Cured for 6 days (should have been 7 but needed to smoke today), so hopefully in a few hours I will have some delicious bacon.

Still refining the recipe, got it from the head chef at the Marriot downtown. I can post it in the recipe book if anyone wants.

Oh I wanted too! I had some on a hamburger tonight, so good. I will put a little less salt in the next one though.
