LEM Products Bacon Cure Dry Rubis to make homemade bacon and that will make breakfast extraordinary and any sandwich heavenly. There is something about the combination of pork, salt, and smoke that makes your mouth water. Making homemade bacon is easier than you think. All you need is your dry rub and a little time. Seasons 25 lbs. of meat! So grab some pork bellies and get smokin’!

Directions:

• Begin with fresh bellies that have been chilled to 42 degrees within 24-30 hours after slaughter.
• Mix seasoning and cure together.
• Rub seasoning and cure mix onto the bellies. Be sure to cover meat completely.
• Place in covered container or zipper top bag. Refrigerate for 7 days, turn over bellies daily. It is important that the temperature is kept at a constant 38 degrees.
• Rinse bellies with fresh water and dry thoroughly with paper towels.
• Further dry the bellies by elevating them on cooling racks with a fan blowing over them. Allow to dry for 30 minutes on each side. This will form a pellicle, a sticky coating on the meat, that will allow smoke to absorb much better. You can also allow bellies to sit in the refrigerator overnight elevated on a cooling rack with a cover.
• Smoke the bacon using your usual smoking procedure.
• Remove bacon from smoker and refrigerate overnight.
• Remove rind if still intact.
• Bacon is ready for slicing or freeze unsliced. If not eaten within 7-10 days, freeze the bacon
