Re: Un-Cured Bacon....
I would say YES, you are definitely right, because that's where the "brine" term comes from.
But the obscure "let's not DO IT the right way" blog entry I read said to do it this way, and I thought
since it's a no pink salt method, maybe I won't buck the system. My first batch I left it in a zippie
and turned it everyday, liquid and all. Which reminds me, my current batch has to be smoked TONIGHT,
so I am glad there was finally another response ad some activity here besides mine. Helped remind me.
AND as a reward for being a helpful tenant this past weekend and straightening up my
landlady's shed, I stole her meat slicer she had stashed in there. MAN is that going to help ME on this
project, lol.
