It was your thread a few months ago that inspired me to do this.

And yeah, I should have added more cure. I paid $8 for enough mix to cure 20 pounds of pork, so there was a lot left over. To be honest, I would rather the pork not cure enough than to be stuck with 6 pounds of rotting meat.

I put the word out to my in-laws to hook me up with some wild hog belly. I've gotten backstrap from them before. So hopefully they will come through.

Go talk to the man and his wife at Oak Grove Smokehouse. No need to order from Amazon. He will sell it to you and he will tell you exactly how to do it. Free of charge and the guy knows his shite. If you want to make sausage he has the seasonings and the casings as well and likes helping people out.

And at LaMorenita next time you can tell them you want fresh and they will pull a hog out and cut it for you for the same price.
