Product Information

This product is shipped frozen. The meat will travel better as a frozen product in the insulated boxes. Bacon has lots of sodium, cholesterol, and fat, all of which can increase your risk of heart disease. But bacon does have other nutrients, like protein, vitamins, and minerals. Just keep in mind that if you eat bacon, it's best to do so occasionally and in small amounts. The meat has an iridescent sheen and the tail is sadly shrunken and twisted. Dry, with some rather off flavours. Not nice. Yes, if you plan on keeping it in a temperature range between 40F and 140F (also know as 'danger zone') for longer than 3 hours. For example, if you plan to cold smoke (below 80F) or low heat (130F-140F) smoke the bacon. Processed meat is one of the #1 causes of cancer' - you are referencing the WHO study that made it a class 1 carcinogen. If you actually understood what that meant and the study they used to 'prove' that, you wouldn't parrot it. The scientific evidence is marginal at best (maybe a 17% increase in RELATIVE risk - e.g. from 1% to 1.17%), and a class 1 carcinogen just means the WHO think it causes cancer, not how much of a cause it it. For reference... smoking is a 2000% increase in cancer risk (vs. 17%)

Now I can easily toss in a couple of strips, turn it on and let the magic happen with perfectly crispy bacon, while I continue with the rest of my meal prep. Apply the dry cure mix evenly on all sides of each pork belly piece. I like to measure out the amount of rub per piece to make sure each one gets the right amount of salt and other ingredients.The stubby tail looks a bit sad and there’s a line of browning on the fat but that’s all. The flavour is fine – there’s restraint with the salt. I do not have a meat slicer so I was thinking of getting the butcher to slice all the pork belly for me. Then I would assemble the slices in 3 inch bundles with string and cure that. How do you think the sliced belly would do versus whole? Any changes you think should be made? Could it still be cured as long?
