Ingredients you'll need:
Large Batch of Dry Cure-
2 cups (400g) kosher salt
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
6.5 teaspoons (60g) pink curing salt (NOT himalayan pink salt. The link to the curing salt that I use is closer to the top of the description here.)
Curing the Belly:
at least a 3 pound (1360g) or more, skin on pork belly
The most accurate way of curing (my preferred method):
Cure the pork belly at a 2.5 percent cure. Multiply the weight of your pork belly in grams by .025 and the number you get from that will be the amount of dry cure that you need to use on the bacon. So in other words a 1600g pork belly would require 40g of dry cure.
The non gram scale version of curing:
Basically sprinkle a generous layer of cure on a baking sheet (about 1/3 of a cup) and dredge your pork belly in it to thoroughly coat all sides. Less accurate, could result in slightly salty bacon, but it works in a pinch if you don't have a scale and don't plan on getting one.

Start by planting two bacon seeds,

I find your lack of B Roll disturbing.
-
I feel like an important, often-overlooked step in bacon preparation is having at least one bourbon during the process. Not enough bacon manufacturers drink bourbon while they make it, and it shows.

FINALLY SOMEONE WHO SAYS BOTH MEASUREMENTS
-
This is pretty much the way we do bacon - so many great ways to flavour it , and different smoke flavours you can add.
-
i’m so glad to see this! We’ve been smoking our own bacon for a couple years now and it is so easy and better than any bacon you have ever had! We use brown sugar and sometimes put maple syrup and lots of cracked pepper. We also flip the pork belly every day for 5 days. Costco almost always has pork belly that’s nice and meaty. No skin on it so both sides get lots of smoke.

This is so awesome when I first started watching this channel I used to cook hamburger helper every night now I have way more confidence in the kitchen I cook our own bread, bacon, and many more dishes I thought I could only buy pre made or in restaurants thank you so much Josh for giving confidence to beginners in cooking!!
-
Literally every video Josh makes is incredible. My fave YouTube cooking channel!!
-
I can't express how much I've learned from Joshua... My family has been super grateful for me cooking the food, but the thanks should all go towards Joshua

Poach or steam the skin until it's really soft. Dry on a rack. Deep fry (350 maybe). It puffs up into bacon chicharrones. Oh my.
-
Funny, using KOSHER salt to cure PORK! :)
-
Dude, I am so freaking glad I found your channel! You go and show us things other cooking shows don't touch. Thanks man!
-
I always look forward to two things when I open a Weissman Video.... his iconic conversation with the camera in the cabinet and the awesome recipe.... always witty, always well-made. A TV show, perhaps?
-

Dude I really love this channel. I also love the old videos the most, just a true culinary guy and his camera sharing knowledge. Love the success and growth of the channel but there is something very special about the early videos and him having all the control and personal touch. Much love to the channel man.

I just made this bacon again for about the 5th time. It's by far the best recipe I've ever tried. Every recipe of yours has turned out perfectly. Now if I make something and it doesn't turn out well my husband asks me 'Is this from the bacon guy'? 'Why did you try anyone else you know he does the best recipes. Thanks for the video. Measuring the cure according to weight is absolutely fantastic. Love Your videos.
