Lamb Bacon=final
« Reply #-1 on: April 02, 2014, 09:05:40 AM »
Yesterday i started a new (for me ) project.
lamb bacon .
i used lamb belly and i put it in a brine of
5 lb water
1 cup sugar
1 cup salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 tbs cure#1
1 tbs pickling spice .
it will be in the brine for 14 days


it is my first time to do it .
so jump in and give me your opinion or criticism  on the project.
thanks

That should have a great taste
Bacon is the Crack Cocaine of the Food World.

Be careful about calling yourself and EXPERT! An ex is a has-been, and a spurt is a drip under pressure!
