Some Days Are Diamonds

Recommended Posts

This was one one of them-

First thing was to smoke some bacon, 2 slabs as a matter of fact, the whole belly of an organically raised pig.

I am aiming for 145F IT and grill temp around 215-220F with some cherry, maple and whiskey barrel smoking woods.

Done as planned.

While I was waiting for the bacon to finish I made some homemade spaghetti. The little white dish has some shaved cured egg yolk in it. It is going on the plated spaghetti.

Plated with Parmesan cheese and shaved egg yolk.

Now the rest of the story- sliced, vacuum sealed and froze the bacon this morning. Taste test was next. This bacon did taste very nice, it had a different flovour than my bacon from store bought belly and the lean was more tender and the fat seemed to be more clear. I have to wait until next fall to do it again. :( The farmer only raised 10 pigs /year.
