I paid $1.98 per lb., was blown away it was so cheap. A week later, my son went to RD in Buffalo, an hour away, and bought 2 bellies for $1.50 per lb !!!!!!!!!!It is sure not Berkshire pork, but I can tell you it makes great bacon!XLBGE, Small BGE, Homebrew and GuitarsRochester, NY

Awesome bacon, because bacon. If you are only eating it 4 times a week maybe you need to step up your game? There are 7 days in a week yo!

Looks fantastic. My latest batch has a a few days left to cure. So great to have bacon you are 100% aware of what's in it.

I have 9# curing right now. It is local, pasture raised, so it wasn't cheap. But the fat is so creamy you could eat it with a spoon.1 LBGE in Chapel Hill, NC

@cookinbob - nice slices BTW. What slicer to you use? I think I'm going to have to invest in one. I'm pretty good w/ a sharp knife and can take down a couple pounds pretty neatly and easily. But a slicer would be a huge help.1 LBGE in Chapel Hill, NC

Slicer is a Chefs Choice 615. Not commercial grade but works well for me. Amazon sells itXLBGE, Small BGE, Homebrew and GuitarsRochester, NY

Your bacon looks great! I just put 3lb of belly in the cure today? What cure do you use? I went with the basic cure this time with brown sugar added.

Cured, smoked, or grilled; pork belly is just good. As Malcom say's the 'creme del le creme' of pork. Mastering pork belly in all dishes covers quite a few skills (i suffer with 'Crackling' perfection). Nonetheless; that is a nice "Belly of Bacon', great looking plate!

Looks great.. Just finished curing my 1st belly on Friday. Paid a lot more @ $5 lb. wonder if I can bring meat across the border?Barrie,Ont.,Canada.
