    @Legume - here's the cure for the bacon ribs, per notes provided by the charcuterer Andrew:
    (Stated as %age of the meat)

     Bacon 
     salt              2.20
     Cure 1               0.25
         (pink salt #1)

    sugar 
               

                2.20
    maple syrup              4.00

    -Cure for 1 week

    Took it out of the vac bag, and rinsed the cure off. No need to soak or desalinate (for me at least). 
    What are the units? Grams or ounces? I'm assuming ounces.
    Yes, the numbers are percentage of meat weight

    The rows somehow got misaligned when I posted the cure recipe,  so please note that only 0.25% of the curing salt #1 is needed.
