Funny you say that. I've just finished cleaning off the next round and putting it on the rack to form a pellicle overnight. Each one was brined slightly differently. Want to work out which on is best.

I followed this recipe for #1

http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/homemade-bacon.html

#2 was the same but I doubled the salt

#3 was the same but I doubled the brown sugar.



#3 was the unanimous winner. The double salt stuff I'll use to flavour things in small doses. The salty and normal stuff I'll give away to a few people to try out and I'll keep #3 for myself haha.

Smoked over hickory for about 2.5 hours after a 6 day brine and 12 hours in the fridge drying on the rack.

Next time I'll cook #3 over Apple wood and see if I prefer the taste.

Been a while since I've posted here. Got a reasonable snapper the other day. Cooked some fillets up with roasted smashed potatoes and broccolini, with chilli kewpie Mayo. Will cook it again.
