For being a busy man I want to say thanks for taking the time to share this video love 🥓 bacon thanks for sharing keep the cameras rolling from Florida .
Making bacon NEVER gets tired! 😃I managed to get a chunk of Mangalitsa pork belly a couple of weeks ago. I tried to make bacon from it but I didn't have a good enough smoker to really do it justice. It was still the best pork I'd ever eaten.
Pork fat rules and bacon is the candy of meats. I love it. Don’t stop making bacon videos. I really admire your new smokehouse. I shared the smoke house video on my timeline and several of my friends have liked it.
I never tire of the bacon videos or any of your videos. Another good way to do bellies is as fresh side meat. My Mother, God rest her soul, preferred side meat to bacon.
I never get sick of you ,I look forward EVERY DAY seeing your videos no matter what you post ..on a slow day I watch them over and over Incase I missed something.. you're interesting and amusing,win win in my books
I love your videos, i made my first bacon last week. Omg it was the best bacon i ever had, even though 4 hours smoke was maybe a bit much. I still loved it 😂
Mike, Thanks Again for the film. My older brother now retired, 70 yrs, was asking me how our Dad did the smoking of bacon when we were kids. I send him your videos. How long did you smoke this first batch in the new smokehouse? I will tell him to start there. Thanks
First timer here learning much keep going like the content can you tell me how You have such good water pressure with no electricity also love that out door kitchen or summer kitchen
You know regarding all cultures across the globe , they all seem to use those common ingredients of, “Salt and Smoke” to make bacon and preserve the food. Great video again thank you and Aloha to you and your family. 🌺🌸🌴❤️🇺🇸
I got to hand it to you Micah you're a very hard worker ! I like to see you smoke whole chickens sometime . How many pounds of meat do you think you can smoke in the new smokehouse ? I should have been out working in the garden today but I have been sicker than a dog today coming out at both ends lol . The boys brought it home from school . Thanks for sharing and have a great evening !
I don't get tired of watching your channel bc your skills and knowledge are entertaining and amazing. I learn something new on every video and all your children are amazing. I like your friends too. You just have a very good channel 😁 👋 take care later
This is the first bacon video of yours I have watched. I’m going to have to go back and check the others out. Do you cure your bacon with the skin on it or removed.
Hey Mike I got a question for you I'm getting ready to order some camp dog have you tried the new hot sauce they got? I just wanna know if I should ordersome?
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures thanks for the info. Our little Homestead loves watching you and your family. Those boys are a real inspiration to our sons.
I agree with many others I like your videos on making bacon but you said that’s the only use for belly muscles of the pig. Have you tried crispy pork? It’s the bomb!!
I just threw it up, never made a drawing or sketch, never touched a pen and paper!😂😂😂 But the inside dimensions are 7’x7’ with an 18” X 7’ firewood storage on both sides. Resulting in a 10’x7’ footprint.
You're not on electric? How do you edit videos and charge cameras? I'd think you could rig a solar fridge and it would pay for itself in propane saved.
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures I have a solar backup system and yeah the panels were the least expensive part. But I'll bet you could match your current capacity for less than it costs to run a propane fridge for three years.
Americans love there bacon! Micah you should get some sheep in on ya farm! You cant beat a good lamb roast ir lamb shanks! Us Aussies love our Lamb. You can also use the wool to make your clothes with it ! I dont know why Americans dont like sheep as much as us! 🐑🐑🐑🐑😍Oh and i do love my bacon!

Mr. Mika. How many pounds is each one of them slabs I tell you what I love baking one of those slabs would be one serving for me Al, who help I’m just kidding😂 but I do love me some good bacon not too salty either just right maybe with a pepper put on it believe it or not I’ve seen Jewish people eat bacon and ribs. Go figure now they’re not the orthodox Jews I still seen it Also, do you freeze a lot of your meats?
I like it from just below freezing to around 40° But if it’s warmer like that, just get it smoked and put it in the freezer the three days of salt should keep it from spoiling.
I'm not tired of watching you make bacon , I'm tired of myself NOT makin bacon lol
😂😂😂😂😂

Can you do a video about long term curing meat in spring and summer? I got to build a smoke house for my farm
I will try to do that! Maybe a bit late for this year, but you never know!
I love your videos, i made my first bacon last week. Omg it was the best bacon i ever had, even though 4 hours smoke was maybe a bit much. I still loved it 😂
That is awesome! I’m very proud you tried it!!!
My first time watching your breakfast bacon, very nice Sir.
Hey welcome!!! I’ve got an entire playlist of bacon videos and I’ll just keep making them!!!
Mike, Thanks Again for the film. My older brother now retired, 70 yrs, was asking me how our Dad did the smoking of bacon when we were kids. I send him your videos. How long did you smoke this first batch in the new smokehouse? I will tell him to start there. Thanks
I salted for three days and then smoked for three days. Worked perfectly!
Now there's a breakfast I could eat every day! That bacon looks amazing my Friend. Thanks for sharing Brother. Take care
I’m absolutely addicted to it!
Mangalitsa fat is SO good for you! It has more Omega 3's than SALMON, and it packed full of vitamin D, and so much more! My favorite pigs to raise!
Now that right there will make a man feel good about eating bacon!😂😂😂
Brother that is an awesome smoke house.
I love it!
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures I'm going to do my best to copy it.
Awesome! Go for it!!!

Thank you so much! Hope you’re having a wonderful day!!!
I never tire of seeing healthy meat being processed.
Me too!!!
I got to hand it to you Micah you're a very hard worker ! I like to see you smoke whole chickens sometime . How many pounds of meat do you think you can smoke in the new smokehouse ? I should have been out working in the garden today but I have been sicker than a dog today coming out at both ends lol . The boys brought it home from school . Thanks for sharing and have a great evening !
Oh man I’m sorry to hear that!!! That’s absolutely no fun!!!
I’ve got places for 42 meat hooks in there now and I could easily fit more!
Love the bacon makin video’s brother!!!
Glad you like them! I get to eat them!🤣
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures I can always assist in the eating part, lol!!!
First!!!!!!
Wow!!! Nooooooo!!!!!!!!!
🤣

I appreciate that Cheryl!!
That looks so good, I'd like to make some hog cracklins with a slab of that
Yum!!! One of these days!!!
👍
"Dad ! Why does this bacon taste like linseed oil? " 😁😜
I had thought it might lol but it didn’t cause any problems whatsoever because it is cold smoke and no heat was applied to the building
Only complaint about the bacon videos is they make me hungry. Another wild pig video would be great.
I will make a wild pig video just as soon as I get one……. We never know when that will happen. Thank you for the encouragement!!
This is the first bacon video of yours I have watched. I’m going to have to go back and check the others out. Do you cure your bacon with the skin on it or removed.
I’ve done both! Here’s my bacon playlist so you don’t have to search forever!

Hey Mike I got a question for you I'm getting ready to order some camp dog have you tried the new hot sauce they got? I just wanna know if I should ordersome?
I had some of the green hot sauce and it was delicious! I’m not sure if that’s the one.
New to curing, what kind of salt ya got there? Lots say to use pink.
I use evaporated food grade salt. Nitrate free.
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures thanks for the info. Our little Homestead loves watching you and your family. Those boys are a real inspiration to our sons.
@@TheNightshade79 That’s awesome! We love that!❤️
Another good video keep making the bacon brother they are fun to watch 👍
Thanks! Will do!
So, how do you have water out of a hydrant? No electricity, is it a solar well pump?
Nope it from the local water co-op.
You had me at bacon!
😜😋😋😋😋🥓🥓🥓🥓
Just curious. Do you have public water or a well?
We’re on a utility district.
How big did you end up making your smoke house
The inside is 7‘ x 7‘ with one and a half feet of wood storage on each side so the pad is 10‘ x 7‘
Is cooler refrigerated during curing?
Outside temperatures are reflective of that so yes
You always work it seams from the same spot washing salt off your cured meats. Don’t you worry about it the salt that is killing your trees
Not really…… there’s a ton of water leaching through the soil all the time.
Who don’t like bacon videos?? Keep ‘em coming that way you’ll drive the vegans and the P.E.T.A. crowd away 😂
Now, that is a plan that I can get behind!
Yes. Don't fiddle around 😊😊
😂😂😂
Do you ever do a full cure on hams like Benton's Country Hams and if not why?
I have no idea how he does his, but I cure hams.
I agree with many others I like your videos on making bacon but you said that’s the only use for belly muscles of the pig. Have you tried crispy pork? It’s the bomb!!
I have but only a couple times….. delicious!!
😎👍
What kind of salt do you use and where do you get it.
I use evaporated food grade salt that I get from the Livingston Tn farmers Co-Op
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures thanks
I just found your channel! ... is this what happened to the pig that tried to nibble on the calf? 😂
😂😂😂😂 not yet…… she’s gotta have some babies for a few years……. And the calf is safe BTW😎😜
Somebody has to make the bacon around here 😅😂
Well, in that case!😎😂
Have u ever used pepper with salt to cure it just asking
Yes I have, it’s good!
Thanks do u have the specks on the smoke house I'd like to know
I just threw it up, never made a drawing or sketch, never touched a pen and paper!😂😂😂
But the inside dimensions are 7’x7’ with an 18” X 7’ firewood storage on both sides. Resulting in a 10’x7’ footprint.
Thanks for you and all u do was milking my goats
🫨 WOW!!! You sure can wash that bacon fast!!!
You ought to see me shower in the evening! Even faster!!!🤣🤣🤣
Oh...yummmmm...
So good!!!
New to your channel keep doing you
Thanks!!
Need me a new smoke house cause I love making my own bacon and hams
Absolutely!!!
Dang it! So close
😂😂😂
You're not on electric? How do you edit videos and charge cameras? I'd think you could rig a solar fridge and it would pay for itself in propane saved.
I might but it takes MUCH more than a solar panel …. That’s the cheapest part!
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures I have a solar backup system and yeah the panels were the least expensive part. But I'll bet you could match your current capacity for less than it costs to run a propane fridge for three years.
It’s possible but the margin might not be as much as you think……. And I’d have to spend time I don’t have to deal with it 🤣🤣🤣
Keep on make in the bacon
I believe I will!! Thanks!
More fat and less meat is my favorite bacon
You and me both!
Americans love there bacon! Micah you should get some sheep in on ya farm! You cant beat a good lamb roast ir lamb shanks! Us Aussies love our Lamb. You can also use the wool to make your clothes with it ! I dont know why Americans dont like sheep as much as us! 🐑🐑🐑🐑😍Oh and i do love my bacon!

@@McGieHomesteadAdventures Just watched all ya Lamb videos ya need to get some more Lambs in Micah!
@@Jamestrent9 They were delicious!!!
Wow that bacon looks to be 1% meat and 99% fat. I think that’s near perfect.
Me too!!! I love it!!
I was fine with the eggs in the bacon until you said oatmeal it's supposed to be eggs and bacon and grits 😁🐝
Very true!!! 100%!
Home Depot crew .
I don't recall you making a bad video but if you could make flavor and smells come threw the video they would be better .but again another great video
Yes, that would be amazing but it would drive everyone absolutely crazy!😂😂😂
9th!
Waking up early!!😎😜
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures sleeping in. 🤣
Never!

Each slab I a pound or more!
I do freeze a lot, can a lot and cure and smoke a lot!!
Make bacon
Will do!
No
No, keep making bacon.
It’s about to get too warm here……. But I’ve made it in warm weather before!
@McGie Homestead Adventures what is the recommended temp to make bacon? It was 84 here yesterday.
Frank! The ol beard is filled out nicely.
Have a great day too brother!
I like it from just below freezing to around 40°
But if it’s warmer like that, just get it smoked and put it in the freezer the three days of salt should keep it from spoiling.
Cut away from your self
Ok
