Just for for the record. This belly went in the cure on the 5th. Rinsed and soaked for a couple of hours and back in the fridge on the 12th. Cold smoked with hickory and wrapped with plastic wrap and back in the fridge on the 13th. Sliced, sampled, and vac sealed today.

Kids always tell it like it is! No BS.
My 9 yr old son said the other night..."I want a Green Egg of my own, just like daddy's." I automatically thought about getting him/us a mini-max! The wife was not amused.St Marys, Ontario, Canada LBGE -

@shtgunal3 - would you are to share your cure recipe? I've done Ruhlman several times and it's very good. I'm just looking for something a little different for the next batch.L x2, M, S, Mini and a Blackstone 36. She says I have enough now....eggAddict from MN!

@minniemoh This is the recipe I used http://barbecuebible.com/recipe/made-scratch-bacon/
For the sugar I used turbinado.
I've tried a few different cure recipes and haven't really found one I liked until now. This is the one I will use from now on. If you try it let me know what you think.___________________________________

Love kids. My 1.5 year old twins got a minimax last year. Plastic hot dogs hamburger for their first cook.
I taught my kids "hot and cold" with the egg. They have not forgotten in the last year. Impressive. They don't mess around with oven or grill. Love it. They even touched and got it all together.
They love being southern boys and grilling a ton. I deal with melt downs when they can't flip food with their own tongs. Absolutely the best feeling.
Great cook there!!! Bacon wins!!-FATC1TY

You're doing a good job of making bacon, but it appears, and even better job of raising a great kid. The latter is far more profound. Kudos to you!

@minniemoh Yes I've tried Ruhlman bacon a few times. I've done the sweet recipe and the savory one. I have never much cared for sweet bacon or many other "flavored" bacons. I guess I just really like the most basic bacon flavored bacon and Raichlen's recipe is just that. Hope this helps.
