Ohiofarmgirl's Adventures in The Good Land is largely a fish out of water tale about how I eventually found my footing on a small farm in an Amish town. We are a mostly organic, somewhat self sufficient, sustainable farm in Ohio. There's action and adventure and I'll always tell you the truth about farming.

Still smoking....

This is what I found when I went out to check the bacons in the smoker the other day.....

Thru this heavenly cloud of smoke I found.....

Bacons... 

See that I even smoke the odd shaped cuts. They always tell you to trim your bellies so they are square and you end up with some weird pieces. So why not smoke them also? I can use these for cooking.

Double stacked... 

I had to improvise to get more room in the smoker. I just used another grill propped up on some bricks to give myself more space to do the rest of the bacons at one time.

It was beautiful. And this kind of looks like a fish or something.. hum...

It was amazing. So now I'm completely done with the hog processing from the 2014 season. Now all I have to do is sit around, eat bacon, and wait for this winter to end so I can start the pig raising process all over again.

Are you starting your day with bacon? Do you want to learn more? Check out this link for more on how-to's. Happy Tuesday everyone!

Still two more pigs and four goats to slaughter....the 2014 meat harvest seems to be going on and on...! That bacon looks delish by the way.
