Mcjagger Those really look great. You did a heck of a good job, at least from the looks, for your first try!
First Try at Bacon
-
I found it easier than I thought it would be. The vacuum sealer was a huge help. Made a big mistake by not having a slicer but my local deli bailed me out! Got lucky there.

Here are the post cured/smoked pics.

That was nice of your local deli! Looks great. Enjoy -
I gave the lady that helped me a pound for her trouble. It was well worth it.

GYoung that bacon looks very good to me

The bacon looks terrific.
You were lucky the lady at the deli agreed to help you out.
A lot of retail businesses would be reluctant to do anything with product from an unknown source they had no prior control over. -
They totally bailed me out. I offered to pay them for the service but they declined. I offered the Gal that sliced the bacon money on the side, she declined. I’m thankful for what they did.
