Processing bacon

The only thing worthy of mention for today was the slicing and packing of the recently smoked bacon.

The slicing* and packing took up the most of the morning, and I can report that we produced a little over five and a half pounds of bacon. 

A half pound didn't make it to the freezer, and was consumed for lunch. As expected, the bacon is a little on the salty side, as it was cured for a couple of days more than planned, However I can report that it produced a lovely bacon sandwich.

The afternoon was spent getting the slicer cleaned and packed away.

Not the most exciting of days, but certainly productive.

* I sliced it a little thinner than usual, about 2mm, and I think I preferred it that way.
