One of the perks of living out in BFE is access to butchers who see their profession as an art. I've bought pork bellies, dry rubbed them and set then in a smoker to be slowly converted into awesome. We also have a wide assortment of Amish outlets to get uncured bacon, ham etc.

I doubt I will ever make my own bacon again as it was a lot of work, but I'm glad that I did.
