Sugar-Cured Hams and Bacon.

When the meat is cooled rub each
eJiece with salt and allow to drain
|pver night. Then pack it in bar
rel, with the hams and shoulders on
! he bottom, using the strips of bacon
10 till in between or to put on top.
Weigh out for each 100 pounds of
meat, pounds of salt, g pounds of
brown sugar, and 9 ounces of saltpe-
ire. Dissolve all in gallons of
yater and cover the meat with the
brine. For summer use it will be
Eafest to use the brine before using.
II that case it should be thoroughly
cooled before it is used. For winter
euring it is not necessary to boil the
prime. Bacon strips should remain
n this brine four 10 six weeks hams
knd shoulders six to eight weeks.
This is standard recipe and has
given the best of satisfaction. Hams
pnd bacon cured in the spring will
keep right through the summer after
they are smoked. The meat will be
sweet and palatable after it is smoked
md the flavor will be good.
