Being near St Patrick's day and Easter let's do something "Cured"!
Anything is game as long as it's been cured. It doesn't have to be home cured, so store-bought items that are already cured are just fine.

Same here. I knew I had to get cracking to get a cure done, but have changed my plan about 27 times.

Face bacon was going to come into play, but the pig head I had was missing too much skin for that so plan B right out of the gate. It is good though.....gets those creative juices flowing.

I totally thought it was the "cursed" TD. LOL!

Just a reminder to all that it doesn't have to be home cured.....but it is more fun

Hrm. I think a cured contest needs a wee bit longer runtime. I've got something in mind, but even if I started tonight, it'd take at least 3 weeks...

Indeed, good reminder to avoid any confusion.

Not to worry - if you read the category description, you will see you can also use store bought cured items which opens up all kind of possibilities:

Plenty of time to get a home cure in. I've read many 5-7 day cures. View it as a challenge to overcome rather than an obstacle.

Also this is a pretty open throwdown imo.

Bacon is cured. You can put bacon on anything. Moink balls, abt's, heck a BLT would qualify (as long as it follows basic TD rules of course)
