Buckboard bacon

Hey - Im not a former poster - just a choosy one.

I just made another batch of regular bacon & buckboard bacon for Christmas. You can get away with just using raw sugar and curing salt like Morton's Sugar Cure or Tender Quick. If you are going to smoke the meat you really need to make sure the salt has the sodium nitrate in it to avoid botulism. ick.
The nice thing about the buckboard kit from Hi-Mountain is that its foolproof, and you really do get enough to do a lot of bacon.
