Instructions to make Homemade Bacon - Your Family Will Adore This!:
  1. If you summarise how to make bacon, it is just salting and smoking. That's it! Prepare the curing liquid to preserve the pork.
  2. Put all the ingredients, except the whisky, in a pot and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat and add the whisky. Leave to cool and it is ready.
  3. Rinse the pork belly block and pat dry with kitchen paper. Put into a resealable bag and add 200-300 ml of the liquid.
  4. Leave to sit in the fridge for about 1 week. Massage the meat now and then.
  5. After 1 week, remove the pork from the bag and rinse with water. Place the pork block in a bowl of water and leave to sit with a thin stream of tap water running for 2-3 hours.
  6. Slice off a small bit and fry. Check the taste. If it is not quite salty enough, it is ready. If it is salty enough at this point, the cured bacon will be too salty later.
  7. Pat dry and leave to rest in the fridge uncovered for 1 day to dry the surface.
  8. Put the pork belly and smoking wood in a smoker. Smoke at 70-80 ˚C for 4 hours.
