Belly is on.

I bought this 8 lb pork belly and brined it for 7 days and sit for 3. It is now rubbed with some spices brown sugar and maple syrup. I hope for 175, it's not for bacon just eating and for beans.That is why I didn't leave it whole. Happy Holidays to all.

The long wait is over and the sweet smell of smoke in the air is happening.....   Good job so far....    Dave

Belly turned out nicely. Pulled at 175, I let it rest for a hour. It sliced well. I fried some up for dinner, it is tasty. Now I have enough in the freezer for beans though the summer.
