Some Asian markets carry them too.<br />It's really easy to make your own bacon and once you get the cure amount right you can experiment with other flavorings too.<br />Hope you have good luck with it Dave. :)<br /><br />no way would I open a store online or off.. it would cut into my fishin' time. :)<br /><cowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02516076315691432589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516940939413771830.post-27150104291219400262011-09-21T14:29:08.949-05:002011-09-21T14:29:08.949-05:00Jeanie, is that fresh side cut from the outside of...Jeanie, is that fresh side cut from the outside of the pig above where you would get the ribs? I wonder if it would be possible to get that cut from the butcher in my local grocery store? I would love to give this a try! I swear I think I could eat bacon with breakfast lunch and dinner!! Ever thought of opening an on line store? lol I'll bet it would be a big hit!<br />Dave~Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516940939413771830.post-55491930788280894882008-12-08T12:40:00.000-06:002008-12-08T12:40:00.000-06:00Nate, I made a post for you about how I process a ...Nate, I made a post for you about how I process a pig.

Do you just shoot it? Also, what do you do with the parts of it that you don't eat (head, etc)? Do you just bury it? Sorry for what I'm sure is goofy questions, but this city boy just has no idea.Natehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11273092075134385722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516940939413771830.post-73441982081636104582008-12-07T13:38:00.000-06:002008-12-07T13:38:00.000-06:00Thank you Ed!
