Homemade Smoked Cured Bacon

Our family goes through bacon like it’s bread.  We eat bacon almost everyday.  I’d say we go through 2-3 lbs of bacon a week.  This can add up and for the longest time I wanted to make my own.  So, I scoured through the internet, looking at some really good sites and using science and reviewing recipes, I came up with my own successful recipe.

Now where does one grab a slab of pork belly?  Costco started selling 10lb slabs for a good price of $2.99/lb.  This means what normally is $7.99/lb of bacon at the store, can be a big savings in the pocketbook.
