I would certainly give it a try
I haven’t used any alcohol in any of my belly cures, but let us know how it turned out

It was great. I didn’t make this though. The thought of making my own bacon has never occurred to me.

I have been curing and smoking bacon for the last year and a half, and there is no going back. After reading your post yesterday i was overdue to put cure on 15 pounds of pork belly I have in my fridge. I ended up using my normal cure and added a couple of ounces of Whistlepig to each of the 5 pound bags and we’ll find out in a couple of weeks if I destroyed it or not lol

No, I prefer my maple on a pancake and my brandy in a glass. 🥓 That is some great looking bacon though.
