INSTRUCTIONS
** sides of bacon from fresh killed country hogs. Lay the sides of bacon on
a board and rub lightly with fine salt. Let stand for 48 hours. Mix the
next three ingredients thoroughly and dissolve in the water. Bring to a
boil and cook for 15 minutes. Skim and let cool. Place bacon in a clean oak
barrel and pour the liquid over the meat. Place a heavy weight on bacon to
keep it under the brine. Bacon prepared like this will keep about one year.
Have sections of bacon smoked at smoke house as needed.
