How to Make Homemade Smoked Bacon (Part 1)

Watch this video for Part 1 of how to make homemade smoked bacon. As bacon gets more expensive, it is becoming more cost effective to cure your own at home. Not only is it cheaper to make your own bacon, but you can season the bacon to your taste. This method works equally well with pork bellies, pork shoulders (buckboard bacon), and pork loin (canadian bacon). The full recipe for the bacon cure can be found in Part 2.

I give the bulk cure recipe in the 2nd bacon video. I like a 2½% cure as I find it is not too salty.
