Hi Mountain Seasonings Buckboard Bacon Cure is a convenient home meat-processing kit developed for making flavorful buckboard bacon from Boston butt pork roast or Canadian-style bacon from pork loin. Instead of requiring you to assemble individual salts, sugars and curing ingredients, the kit supplies a prepared cure blend along with detailed directions for completing the curing and smoking process. The 16-ounce package contains two 8-ounce cure packets and provides enough mix to cure as much as 25 pounds of meat, making it practical for processing one larger batch or dividing the project into smaller portions according to the included instructions. Its blend contains salt, brown sugar, sugar, maple sugar and sodium nitrite, combining the curing components with complementary sweet and savory ingredients. Buckboard bacon offers a different starting point from conventional bacon made with pork belly: Boston butt produces a substantial, meaty result that can be sliced to the thickness preferred for breakfast plates, sandwiches and other recipes. Pork loin may also be used when the goal is homemade Canadian-style bacon with a leaner profile and round slices. Because proper measurement and handling are important when curing meat, users should follow the enclosed directions for meat preparation, cure quantity, refrigeration, rinsing and smoking rather than estimating the process. This kit is a straightforward choice for hunters, home processors and outdoor cooks who want to prepare bacon using familiar cuts of pork without formulating a cure from scratch. It is gluten free, made in the USA and packaged in a compact box that stores easily with other meat-processing supplies until the next curing project.Specifications and Features: 16 oz kit with two 8 oz cure packets Cures up to 25 lb of meat For buckboard bacon from Boston butt pork roast Suitable for Canadian-style bacon from pork loin Includes detailed curing and smoking instructions Gluten free Made in the USA Brand: Hi Mountain Seasonings Product Type: Bacon Cure Kit Manufacturer Part Number: 025 UPC: 736237000253
