When curing bacon ( dry or wet) can you use a meat tenderizer. The direction on most tenderizers say to use only a few hours. My problem is the fat in the bacon is stringy and my wife will NOT eat it. I have only made bacon once, maybe I got a old pig? The rest was very good. I used a dry rub that used a little water, but I used apple juice. What did I do wrong?
