Pork Belly dry brined in fridge for c. a week w Misty Gully Maple Bacon Cure...  bit of a soak to remove excess salt and cure... then will bake in 120 deg oven for 90 (those who have hot smokers would likely hot smoke it from here... )

The bake-in-oven still does comes up nice and probs is one of the easiest meat/bacon curing type exercises possible... pork belly-zip lock bag-dry brine cure while chilled- soak-then bake... 

  ; )  Might even had a bit of honey

Anyway - did a bit of a glaze up... came up nice...  think I would have soaked the brine-cured belly a bit more in water to reduce overall saltiness prior to baking finish : )

Awesome @Graubart you old Pirate, very creative & fine looking Charcuterie, ( I wonder if many no what that means ) I can only imagine what would smell & taste like.

I dabble in similar exploits, here's a Beef Jerky mix I put together for dehydrating tomorrow.

Cheers me heartie !!

Haha. I'm the same, Oz. I look at this thread and say to myself, "Oooh, I must try that." 
But as things turn out I'm almost vegetarian currently. I'm overweight and need to shed some. Rather than give up beer I've cut back on meat for the time being. Once I hit my target weight I'll be back on the meat with a vengeance and trying some of these tasty recipes.

Hey GB, kids gave me a Webber Smokey Mountain a while back (Hot smoker) would you have any recipes that I could have a crack at in this thing? I've done a brisket and a couple of chooks but feeling a bit underwhelmed with the results so far....any advice or help much appreciated.
