I'd never heard of such thing. Is it made from loin?

Pork shoulder. You can brine it and smoke it like pork belly bacon, its pretty good.

That is what we call a cottage roll-boil it with a bay leaf.
It is nothing resembling bacon at all.Closer to ham.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Sounds more like tasso ham. Pork shoulder quick brined with cajun spices then smoked. Used mostly as a seasoning meat in bean dishes like red beans and rice.

I make it all the time. I brine it in the same thing belly bacon is made with. It is more like ham to me. I can buy butts for less than half price of bellies. So for me its a no brainer. I split the butt, so it is two pieces about two or three inches thick. Brine it, smoke it, split half in half and freeze. Butts average about 10lbs so I end up with it costing $1 to 1.25 a pound, depending on the butt price.
