Just curious on your method of slicing and maybe even size of the slab. I have a $300.00 cabela's slicer and it will only slice a slab maybe 8". So, I have been cutting my belly into pieces that will fit my slicer. Is that possibly what you guys with the smaller slicers do???

Thanks,

Gary
 
I trim my bacon to about 9 1/2" to fit my Chef's Choice 615 slicer... about $150..... I trim BEFORE curing so I can use the trim for Chinese BBQ pork... it's awesome used for that....
 
Aaaaah!!!! It kinda sounds to me like there are several out here that have to shorten our slabs. Hey......these short bacon slices fit perfect on BLT's.........but maybe a little short for fully wrapping ABT's.........and I get more slices with my breakfast eggs.
