This will take several posts, so give me a few to get all posted.
For those that didn't see my prelude: https://discussions.texasbowhunter.c...d.php?t=798887
I've watched a good number of folks here do bacon, so I thought I'd give it a go.
1st thing I discovered is pork bellies are more difficult to find in the city than out. I picked up 11# from La Michoacana that came to ~8.5# after skin removed. That came to about $5.50/lb. Then also picked up another 5.5# with the skin already removed from Central Market at $5.50 /lb. The belly from Central Market looked a lot thicker and just looked better than the belly from La Michoacana. 1st pick one from La Michoacana & 2nd pic is one of three we got at Central Market.
