Bacon theme

Lots of bacon going on here lately, so I thought I'd just post a few pics.
Cured two 3 lb loin pieces for Canadian bacon in Hi Mountain for 6 days. Soaked for 2 hours, thoroughly rinsed, dried overnight in the fridge, then for another hour under a fan and smoked last Wednesday at ~200 with a little apple wood. This morning was the first chance I had to sample some for breakfast.

Out of the smoker and cooling down

Sure. You can watch some real football. Might be a good idea to bring your snow shovel, although I hope not.
 
how high of internal did you take it, & do you have a recipe for the cure? I was wondering if you could use the loin intead of belly, thanks for pre-answering my question.

Off the smoker at 142
The cure was purchased from Hi Mountain's website over a year ago
I did use loin. I haven't made belly bacon yet.

For around $6.95 I purchased a package of bacon cure, sufficient for curing 200 lbs. of bacon. 'Twas purchased from Allied Kenco of Texas.
