More Curing of the Pigs Belly!
« on: April 02, 2021, 02:16:16 PM »

I have not done any flavored bacon in quite some time.  And I do not think I have ever done it with a dry brine. So I am trying a Maple, a Sage and a Black Pepper/Jalapeno Powder.  Will be done on the 12th!

Never did flavored. Belly is not an easy find around me, most small butcher shops are gone and the few that are left usually make bacon to sell.

I go to Sams, not sure where Costco is to me. Probably Pittsburgh, maybe 60 miles or so. I do have a little market that I may have to ask if they can order them.

I dont hold out much hope for the Sage, but the other 2 should be pretty good!
