Costco Pork Belly

I was in my local Costco the other day and notice that they had pre-sliced pork belly.  Has anyone tried to cure and make bacon out of this?
A few thoughts:
  • Would you want to build it back as a slab?
  • Would you use less cure or less time as it is likely to get in between and cure more than usual?
  • When you spoke it should you tie the pieces together as a slab?
  • Other issues/concerns?
