Long story short.... Had a pig processed and the butcher screwed up and gave me 1/4"sliced side meat instead of bacon. Can I thaw and cure and smoke just like a belly and have really thick bacon? Will it cure in a day or two? All laid out to put cure and seasoning on so am I actually only curing a 1/4 inch of meat???

Something that thin... 6-8 should be plenty I’d think. Try a slice after 4-5. Lotta surface area to absorb smoke per weight of meat.In God I trust- All others pay cash...Check out the Mad Hunky and products at https://madhunkymeats.com or https://www.facebook.com/MadHunkyMeats

I'd probably smoke it and grind it. If you got some venison mix it 3 parts venison to 1 part bacon and it makes some fantastic burgers.
