Or soon to be bacon. Went to Costco and bought a ~8 lb pork belly. Cut about 3 lbs to save to sous vide and going to make applewood smoked cider mill bacon with the rest.
I have made bacon before but this is the first time I bought a belly from Costco. I couldn't believe what a good cut I got.
Made the brine, injected, and put the belly in a container. Used a lid from a pot and a dish to hold it down.
Stay tuned- back in 3-5 days when it goes on the RecTec
