- Bacon
- Mild Bacon
- A cure for a Mild Bacon - This is a very mild cure.
- My favourite Bacon
- A cure with slightly more salt and less sugar - My favourite Bacon . This still has nowhere near the salt level of some 'traditional' bacons from years ago, but is a great starting point for today's palates.
- Ventrèche - Bacon by another name
- For lardons and cooking, my version of the French Gascon Bacon called Ventrèche is saltier and more robust that the ones above.
- Pancetta
- Pancetta
- A Pancetta from Jason Molinari with lots of herbs. This has a lot more herbs and spices than any other Pancetta recipe I've seen. It's well worth making and is a good 'first time' air-dried meat project.
- Pancetta di Thurlaston
- My take on Pancetta - Pancetta di Thurlaston . A Pancetta with less herbs and spices than Jason's.
- Pancetta di Larbo
- An unusual product from my mate This Little Piggy, also known as Larbo - I've named it after him - Pancetta di Larbo . This rolled pancetta arrotolata is flavoured with orange and fennel.
- Injection Cured Ham
- Pauline's Ham in a Bag
- The ever popular Pauline's Ham, but this version's cured in a bag!
- Brine Cured Ham
- Black Ham
- An unusual Black Ham based on the Suffolk Ham of the same name.
- Cider Ham
- An immersion cured Cider Ham with warm spice overtones.
- Air Dried Meat (Whole Muscles - Salumi)
- Lomo embuchado
- Cured eye of pork loin - Lomo embuchado is a classy product indeed.
