Great method, simple and easy to follow. No Nitrate and no effing smoking like all the yank sites.

I came across this video a bit by accident... i am from canada and was looking at how to make english bacon (american bacon is what’s most available here and it is more fat than meat). Anyway just as i was about to look at your other videos, I saw your name, Paul, looked at the video closely and realized that we met in Tully, Australia in 2007!!! I hope you are doing well! It was nice watching your videos!!! Take care x

Great recipe and so simple, thank you!

Great quick, simple, fun video

Looks like a great idea I’ll have to try it although when you finished cooking it it looked more like pork than bacon.

Thanks for this mate can’t wait to try it, I’m in Ecuador so decent bacon is a challenge, picked up a packet this morning but just thought I’d peek at the ingredients and put it back on the shelf!

Great recepie, and especially entertaining with all the knife flips 🤣

Hey there paul looks great haw long does it keep for and and can i then freeze it

Hi! Is it normal for it to be liquidy? I did mine yesterday and it's now got some liquid in it

Superb!!!!

How long can you leave the meat curing before it goes bad? We did a cure, the meat in air-tight bags within a water proof plastic container, leaving the meat for around 3 weeks and it all went bad. (We were taking 2 bags out at a time as that was all we had space for within the fridge) Was this just due to the time left or could there be other reasons?

Just wondering, how do I slice the bacon? I threw the knife up like you did and lost 3 fingers so things are a little challenging.

Hi dear friend. It's nice cooking 👌👌

Hi can you please show me how to make the cure for English boiling bacon thanks

OK, so Brits use the loin for bacon. I'm in tx, and I always knew the Brits used a different cut, just not which one. Here in America we use the pork belly, and I'm currently trying my hand at curing it. I'm gonna have to try the brit version because ive never had British style bacon and think I'd like to try it. I was wondering if the bacon can be cured without sugar though? I have a autoimmune disease, and one of the side effects of that is insulin resistance. So I need to minimize my sugar intake. The pork belly I'm curing is being done in natural salt, ground pepper, and garlic powder in a zipper bag. I plan to scrape off the cure and rinse it at the end before slicing it up. Thnx for the nes recipe to try

British people use either loin (known as 'back bacon') or belly (known as 'streaky bacon'). No

@@JuiceTerry87 yeah, I get belly bacon is called streaky by Brits and isn't that popular. I just didn't know about The loin bacon. I knew Brits used a different cut, just not which one. I've got to try loin bacon though because that sounds pretty good to this Texan.

Sugar has the effect besides giving a 'sweeter' product of' tenderising but is NOT essential to achieve a cure.The use of DEN MERARA,MAPLE SYRUP or even HON results in' interesting flavours.THer are various othe 'flavout rings worth trying on the web but to me this is NOT ONE OF THEM-much too hit and miss and I'dcure at lewsat akilogramat any one time The guy inthe vid may knowfromexperience what eights.percentages to use but guesswork is NOT the way to go as far as meat curing is concerned. A STANDARD cure as recommended bythe USDA is known as the 8-4-2 cure or 8lbs fine Sea or Kosher salt -[no additives] 4 lbs of Sugar and TWO OUNCES of SALTPETRE. at a MEAT-to-CIURE ratio of 2,5-to 3% this give a nitrate concentrationof arouind ONE in 4000 that's LESS than in some root or salad vegetables and in this kind of concentration NOT HEALTH ISSUES have been found -in fact the exact opposite But this guy IS right in one aspect BACON is so damn easy to make. SMOKING? Give LIQUID SMOKE a try just like the Big-Boys do

DO YOU HAVE A BEEF BACON TRADITIONAL RECIPE? OR CAN WE USE THE SAME INGREDIENTS

I am getting half a pig next month, can this be made from a loin that has been frozen?

Is the sugar necessary? if left out what would you do, more salt? or ... nothing?

@pauliesKitchen

Hi Dnmurphy, you could leave the sugar out, the curing process is made by the salt. The sugar is there to help balance out the salt. While I've never tried it my guess is that your bacon would taste really salty. If you do make it without any sugar do let me know I'm curious as to how it would turn out :)

Hey I've tried with and without and I prefer with the sugar. It really rounds out the flavour. I would also recommend using some herbs and spices and cold smoking it. I also do a 4 day cure and then dry it in my attic but it all achieves the same thing. Also nitrates aren't so bad. So long as you use them sparingly they will only improve the final product 👍

Is it possible to cure the bacon without using normal sugar but instead using monk fruit sugar or other light natural sweetener please?

I would never fry my bacon in butter! If you cook it long and slow then fat will render from it to assist in frying. If you do need extra then it simply has to be lard.

Looks a bit grey, would be better if you at some of the curing salt#1...

Good evening Sir, You are right it does come out a little grey. this is due to not using curing salts. Curing salts contain nitrites and it is something I anted to avoid using in this particular recipe. Its the nitrites that give Bacon its lovely pinky colour. Thank you for your comment I hope you have a great day

Bacon is not ordinarily pink. In conventional curing processes, sodium nitrite (a pink salt) is added to the meat. Because it's highly toxic, it's dyed pink to prevent accidental ingestion

Where is the smoking??

The kitchen is one of the most dangerous rooms in the house. Prating about with knives, trained ‘bar tender’ or not, is just adding extra unnecessary and stupid risks. Just stick to the cooking, after all that is what your channel is supposed to be about.

Buttering your bread on the same board as the raw bacon was cut on? Not very hygienic.

Hi NK thank you for taking the time to comment, if I'm reading your comment right you saying bacon comes from Europe, danish bacon is definitely one of the major ones. My recipe is a take on the traditional methods from the middle ages in England. Curing bacon dates back from nearly 3500 years when the chinese cured pork belly with salt. The Romans were also following similar practices around the same time, with their methods procured through land grabs in the middle east in the time when they were expanding their empire. They improved the pig breeding and spread the knowledge throughout their empire. Traditionally curing is done with salt and sugar, which is what my recipe pays homage too. Modern day techniques use nitrates which is a cheaper method but is also a carcinogenic and harmful to us people. I hope that you have a great day :)
