It sounds like a brine rather than a soak.

PS, Salt pork is great for cooking greens and peas!

You use only 2# of this stuff per 100# of bellies. I don't recommend it for home use. This just is to give you an idea of how little you use.

So the 50 lb box will be enough for 2500 lbs of bacon? That is almost a full year's supply! :biggrin1:
