Home Cured Bacon - The Situation

bacon turned out pretty well. might cure for a day or so less next time as its a bit salty but nothing a quick blanch won't take care of. i also removed the skin which should have stayed until after the smoking process. directions ain't my thing...but it tastes 100 times better than what you get a supermarket thats pumped full of water. store bought no longer an option
cut my bacon into lardons fried it up and made Spaghetti all'Amatriciana by mixing it w/spicy chiles, tomato sauce, red onion, and grana padano cheese. bacon - "oh hey happy valentines murray!" me - "oh hey bacon thanks"
