I stared with two pork bellies from Costco. Used two different cures for each (Asian and Canadian). A week later smoked, sliced and vacuum sealed them. We’ll be enjoying them for months.

    It does….when its your first time making it and make it WAY to salty and throw it all away.

    Looks awesome. I made bacon for the first time about a month ago and I find it WAY better than any bacon that I have ever eaten. I will definitely be doing it again. I used maple syrup in the curing solution so I imagine that is what you are calling Canadian.

    Looks great. What temp and for how long on the smoke? Also, what wood did you use?

  5. Could you share the recipes you used? I recently made bacon and I was disappointed with the outcome. Even after smoking for almost 8 hours ended up tasting bland. Was my first time smoking on my traeger and I used their signature blend. Probably last time I use the signature blend for bacon.

    I followed this one and I don’t think I’ll use it again:

    How do you get it sliced? I don’t have a deli slicer 🙁

    How and when do you remove the skin? That’s my difficulty. And what should I do with it? I only need pea soup once a year 😉

    That looks excellent OP! What kind of slicer do you use? I see it in the background of the second pic, but I can’t quite make out the brand or model.
