Just finished our second batch of cold smoked bacon. Thought I would have to experiment with different dry rub recipes, but after researching for a good while, went with the following for 5 lb. of pork bellies:
1 tablespoon black pepper
1/2 cup Kosher salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon pink curing salt #1
The mix weighs 200 grams so 40 grams per lb. of pork belly. Put in large ziplock bags and turned over every day in fridge for 10 days. Smoked with pecan for 6-7 hours under cold smoke temp of <90 F. Unbelievable how good this bacon is.
We recently made some ham from pork butt and the wet cure works the best. Smoked it for 12 hours. Pork cotton candy.
