And no bacon.
Had a big lunch yesterday, so just put together a small plate of charcuterie and some cheese for evening snacking.
The highlight was some home-made pancetta tesa that had just finished drying.
This is unrolled pancetta (cured and dried pork belly) which can be sliced thin and eaten like prosciutto.
I have heard people describe cured pork fat as just "melting in your mouth", and this truly did.
The first attempt was just a small, half-pound trial. Hope to start a 2 or 3-lb hunk curing this weekend.

If it is anything like the Jamón that I while visiting Spain once upon a time, you are a lucky man. I still dream about it, but have yet to find anything as good over here.

Bah! A pox on you for mentioning In-n-Out when I can't have any.
A 3x3 protein style, please.

Never had Jamón (nor been to Spain for that matter). But I am getting ready to see if I can repeat my initial success with the Pancetta Tesa on a larger piece.

The basic process for making the two seems to be the same. It reminded me of prosciutto, but was much better than any I had eaten. Best of luck with the next batch.

Why cannot you have any In-N'-Out? It was pretty darn good. Sorry. Two burgers and two orders of fries made me pretty content.

Fajitas with pork, chicken, and steak. There may have been bacon in it, I can't be sure.
