Bacon, what's not to love? How about the incredibly high salt content, cost, inconsistent flavor, and oft-questionable quality of the meat prior to the cure? Well folks, here's the solution, home-cured, home-smoked bacon from scratch. It's absolutely incredible and less than 1/3 the cost of storebought.

Steps:
- Rinse pork belly and pat dry. Mix brown sugar, salt, paprika, red pepper flakes, black pepper, curing salt, and cumin seeds together. Add maple syrup. Spread the cure mixture evenly over pork belly.
- Vacuum-seal the pork belly or place it into a resealable plastic bag, squeezing out as much air as possible. Refrigerate for 7 to 10 days.
- Remove pork belly from bag and rinse thoroughly. Pat dry and refrigerate while preheating your smoker to 220 degrees F (105 degrees C) according to manufacturers' instructions.
- Place pork belly, fat-side down, onto the wire rack. Place the rack into the smoker. Add 1 fist-sized chunk of applewood and 1 chunk of hickory wood to the smoke pan according to manufacturer's directions. Smoke for 1 1/2 hours; add 2 more chunks of applewood. Continue smoking until pork belly reaches an internal temperature of about 150 degrees F (66 degrees C), about 1 1/2 hours more.
- Remove pork belly from smoker and slice as desired. Store in the refrigerator for roughly 30 days. You can also portion out the finished bacon and freeze whatever you don't plan to consume right away, as you would any other meat product. To use, simply thaw in the refrigerator and you're good to go with little loss of texture.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Put the bacon on a rack over a roasting pan.
- Lightly sprinkle the bacon with brown sugar& the black pepper.
- Bake apprx 15 minutes or until done.
- It should be golden& crispy.
- Serve really hot.
Tips:
- Choose the right peppers: Bell peppers are the most common type of pepper used for this recipe, but you can also use other types of peppers, such as poblano peppers or Anaheim peppers. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time accordingly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When baking the peppers, be sure to leave enough space between them so that they can cook evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the peppers will steam instead of bake and they won't get as crispy.
- Use a sharp knife: When cutting the peppers, be sure to use a sharp knife so that you get clean, even slices. A dull knife will tear the peppers and make them more difficult to cook evenly.
- Season the peppers well: Before baking the peppers, be sure to season them well with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the peppers.
- Don't overcook the peppers: The peppers should be cooked until they are tender-crisp, but not mushy. Overcooked peppers will lose their flavor and texture.
Conclusion:
Oven-baked pepper and bacon is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. It's also a great way to use up leftover peppers and bacon. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that your whole family will enjoy.
