Posted By: Judman Buckboard bacon 🥓..... - 07/15/18
Guy at work brought me a couple packs, said it’s pork shoulder brined and smoked, thought it was damn good. Anyone else make it, tips recipes? Thanks
Also heard it called cottage bacon. Local Safeway has Hemplers version pretty regular. Great stuff!

Haven’t tried my own, but I bet your regular bacon recipe would work great.
I've made it many times. I used the Hi-mountain backboard kit. It's very simple.

Yep, I'm thinkin the same thing. I'm gonna give her a try!! Grin
I have dabbled at making it. Your results my not be perfect.
But they will still be decent, give you info for recipe tweaking.

I have bought it made with a whole butt. Beautiful bread sized slices.
I split mine, was concerned with getting a proper cure.

+1 on the kit. Had my butcher slice a butt into nice uniform slices for me as he's a pro and I ain't. Good stuff.
Done it many a time--- I don't brine as per say --- dry rub will make a brine---- I vac seal pork with dry rub on it. refrig. for 10 days. ------ Dry rub---- Morton tender Quick( go easy), brown -- white sugar, pickling salt, cinnamon, Hershey's cocoa, coffee, mustard ,fennel seed, rosemary, pepper, garlic, onion, whatever is left in the spice rack. Turn over daily.
--------- After about 10 days -open up and soak submerse in cold water for about 1 hour. after 1 hr slice off fry up a piece to test for salt. To salty Soak in cold water and test ever so often for salt taste. When satisfied return to frig. uncovered for 24hrs. to dry out. At this time it's cured bacon (maybe)----- If smoked bacon is wanted I smoke in low heat until meat reaches internal temp. of 140 deg. dust with corn meal at the end..-------- pork loin done this way is my favorite. ----Web
