Dead Deer Bacon
« Reply #-1 on: November 03, 2012, 01:24:23 PM »

So I had 4 lbs. of dead deer and 6 lbs. of dead pig and 1 lbs. of back fat. It went like this.

Dead deer meets dead pig


Let them do a hand shake and get down to making bacon. To this I added my maple bacon mix and 850 ML. of maple syrup. Should be good a maple flavored.





Into three cake pans and into the fridge over night.


Next morning I flopped them onto the racks, came out real easy because I sprayed the pans with PAM. After they where in the racks I dusted them with some magic dust.





In the smoker now getting 4 hours of Hickory. Will up date later.


Slicing day or should I say morning


First one sliced



Second one sliced


All three sliced up


Frying some up, very little grease. Some people warned me not to add the pork fat as it's to much fat..........seems I should have added more.


And yes the taste test was WOW this is good dead deer.


Time to vac pack and weigh it out into 1 lbs. packages. I used the to-go lids shiny side up to support the bacon. Makes for easy packaging into the vac. bags.



Got 11 1\2 lbs. vac. packed
