Neighbor made chocolate pudding and put it in mini graham cracker crusts with strawberry on top. It was pretty good.


I thought it looked like pudding but then I thought maybe those were chunks of meat in it and the things on top looked like the carrots that the Chinese places do.

Costco had pork belly on sale cheap this weekend (I paid about $2/lb) so I bought some with the intention of making bacon with it. I'm planning on just following the Amazing Ribs simple bacon recipe, but I was curious if anyone here has found anything better. I'm not a huge fan of maple bacon, otherwise I'd probably try that one as well.

Curing is the easy part. The hassle is slicing and packaging.

Simply leave out the maple syrup and do everything else, the rest of the recipe is foolproof. I did 2x10# slabs over the last week this way, 1 with maple syrup and 1 without to satisfy the heathens in my family. Do the #2 recipe either way,

Yeah don't use Ruhlman's recipe for bacon (assumng that's what you did). Use an eq cure, and never worry about saltiness again.

i've made bacon several times and it seems pretty foolproof to me. slicing is the only hard part, even with my glorious awesome slicer

i've done it with maple, brown sugar, chili powder, soy/miso, and probably something else. I'm not a big sweets guy but they were all excellent

Hey guys, I think it's BBQ day!



I'm actually only using 3 of the 4 racks of short ribs. I'm saving the last one for myself on a later date!





Some rub work. Ground a bunch of fresh black pepper this morning for this stuff.

What's an eq cure, got a good example? I have been using Ruhlman's recipe but I usually drop the salt in the cure mixture by about half and soak it in water for an hour after curing. Ive got it pretty dialed in now but if there's a simpler way I would like to try it out.

Great job on the beef ribs. They're a lot of fun to cook too. I can only ever have a few bites though because they're so rich.

I made bacon once and classified it as failure, mainly because there was not enough salt so the opposite experience. Meathead recipe, same with the pastrami I made once, also his recipe, just not enough salt. So I am not making anymore recipes from him.

TBH, just fresh sliced pork belly, fried with salt, is better than bacon. The drippings are great on bread.

I went back again and found the smallest packer I've ever seen, 8.5 lbs. :kimchi: Then bought it immediately.

I'm lucky that I have 2 costcos pretty close by (see user name) so one usually has them.

Personally I don't feel every meal has to be full of spices and seasoning, it's nice to have variation and this simple old timey food really hits the spot now and then.

It wasn't bacon, that was the point. It was plain pork belly with a little salt, fried.

Edit: Tasted good? Definitely! Would happily inhale everything there. Still fits the "bland" descriptor though, especially when paired with everything else on the plate.

For smoking hams, I realize there's a technique to it and the glaze is important, but are you generally just buying a pre-cooked and pre-smoked ham and giving it a bit more smoke and heat? 3 or 4 hours of work? Or am I missing something?
