I decided to try making a little buckboard bacon and it turned out great. I started with a couple boneless boston butts. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/BCzuJ1Z.jpg) I dry cured them for 10 days and then smoked them for 10 hours. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/AFpVrDE.jpg) Then after a 2 day rest in the fridge wrapped in plastic wrap, I sliced and packaged it. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/P8HqEGJ.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/qDYWbjx.jpg) I ended up with 1 pack of small pieces, 3 packs of end chunks for seasoning, and 12 packs of sliced bacon goodness. The looki s different than traditional bacon but the taste is all there.

Yes, very similar. I used just a little more brown sugar and no black pepper. I'm going to experiment with different flavor profiles in the future and also try a batch using a wet cure. When I get my smokehouse up and running this Spring, there's no telling what I will get into with this and hams.

Yes it does!! Is it very salty? It is just a little less salty than good store bought bacon.

I'll buy the hog jowls if you'll smoke them for the next gumbo cook....or trade you some Jacob's smoked andouilles, until you perfect your own andouille recipe!

Yep! Gonna be doing this!!
I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

Smoker set on 200 and smoked to an internal temp of 150.

Smoker set on 200 and smoked to an internal temp of 150. Which is basically the temps for porkbelly when making traditional bacon. Looks great.

Wiley, I just used tenderquick and brown sugar for this batch. I read that some of the pre-packaged cures could be more salty. Let me know how it turns out.

Well, I did it. Ended up leaving the butt in my fridge for 11 days and turned it every evening. Smoked it last night on the Primo, sliced it this morning and I'm hooked! Mighty fine eaten' and LOTS cheaper than regular bacon. Got an 8lb butt for another batch that I'm gonna get started tonight.
