Wow! That is a nice collection of bacon you have there! Great job!

I've always been scared to try making bacon but it looks like a worthwhile endeavor. I am interested in your more detailed story to learn how to do this.

 

[John Solak]

Awesome looking stuff!!! Should I PM my address now or wait till after Christmas so you can send my some?

 

[Brian Dahl]

Threw cold cheese on there. I don't know why.

'cause it may taste even better?

Nice work Luke: hammy, bacony - I would be happy to have any. Speaking of which, if you can't jam that all in your freezer; well, you know...

Thanks John. I weighed the options and figured, if this bacon was perfect...the greatest bacon ever made...and my wife was PO'd...it wouldnt really pay off!

John,
My baby sister is out in San Diego with her Navy husband. When we go out to visit her I'll ship the bacon and meet at your house. You fire up the the hot coals and I'll bring the cold ones.

Steve,

It is absolutely worth it. I know some west coasters have trouble getting bellies, but if you can, its fun to prep and delicious to eat. Best of all, I've got a freezer full of bacon that I killed, butchered, and made.
