    Eggin’ Bacon

    Found some pork bellies at the Asian grocer for $2/lb. Followed this recipe and turned out 6 pounds of meat candy. A little salt, a little sweet, the smoke sent it over the edge. No curing powder, used pear wood because it’s all I had. Two hours at 200 and it was right at 150*

    fr8dog, find you an aluminum pan for a drip pan. I use a 14" crawfish serving pan lined with foil. It's saved me many a mess when cooking briskets or pork butts. Easy cleanup, and it fits right on top of the plate setter without blocking the sides.

    There’s a 10 x 10” square pan underneath it. A round one would be better. I’ll get those. Thanks.
