Haven't done so yet but it is on my list to get done and one more reason that I bought a smoker.
The info you can get at Amazing Ribs is great and I plan on using their recipe for my trial run. I did the same for the first time I made brisket and was not disappointed. Guys there do their research.

Thanks!
Edit: This is an excellent read on the science behind curing. Very nice.

1) Get a pig
2) Slice it thinly
3) Fry it
4) Scoff it with BBQ sauce

I know nothing of curing; but sounds a bit wrong to remove the skin.
It is just as edible as the meat and simply becomes a line of crispyness near the fat.

I wonder if removing the skin allows the brine to penetrate the sacred meat, more easily. Don't know. Hopefully, I learn a thing or two during this side project of mine, and I will have a greater appreciation for bacon, than before.

There's weird customs all over the world; I prefer bacon with rind[^]

Best way to make your own bacon?
1 - Keep eating lots of bacon.
2 - You'll grow your own and can take it with you wherever you go.

I never demanded. I always said "please".
I will take pics, when I do it, and I will share.
Now that I have read more, I will need time to get all the ingredients to do this and to plan. I thought it would be easy, but alas, I have botulism to worry about. ugh. I am committed to learning this, but it is not going to happen this weekend.

In a moment of fuzziness I started the VS 2015 Update 1 - it took 5 minutes to download and now I started the second hour of installation (on SDK 10 now)...I hope I will not regret it...

Still waiting.

When I upgraded the icon that you suppose to use from the system tray kept hanging / failing for one reason or another
I eventually kicked the upgrade off from windows update.
