The kit is $30 and it comes with everything you need to make yourself two delicious kilograms of bacon including cure, salt, sugar, recipes to make six different varieties, curing bags and an overwhelming sense of satisfaction knowing that you have made it with your own two hands, the only thing the kit doesn’t include is the pork belly.

The process itself couldn’t be easier; simply cure the pork with the salt, add the flavours and package it up in one of the curing bags and place it in the fridge.
