Made-from-scratch bacon from Project Smoke: Seven Steps to Smoked Food Nirvana (page 113) by Steven Raichlen

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    This is an EXTREMELY salty bacon. There are other, better recipes out there for curing and smoking your own bacon.
