Berkshire Pork Belly
« on: August 01, 2015, 05:50:54 PM »
Got my hands on a Berkshire pork belly today (free!) and was wondering if anyone has made bacon with this special pork. I've made regular bacon with maple sugar and pure maple syrup. Use the same on the Berkshire or salt and pepper?

S&P and call it good. Wouldn't want to mask that pig. IMO

Never bacon.  Did lots of pork belly though.  I have not figured out how to get the skin from leather to crackling yet.

Raichlen just smoked a Berkshire pork belly on his new show. I think I deleted it but if you have cable it might be available on demand. Or on line: http://video.mpt.tv/video/2365526373/
