Saturday's cooks: Bacon and Gyros
Started Saturday with 5pounds of pork belly.
It was cured for a week and going on the Yoder to become bacon.
Smoked until IT of 150F.
Fired up the stickburner in the afternoon for gyros.
Used part of a pork shoulder, heavily rubbed with something the misses found online.
Smoked for about 3,5 hours at 250F, wrapped with some broth until tender. Pulled the pork.
Crisped up the pulled pork in a skillet with some bacon fat while the misses made some flatbread.
Served with home made tzatziki.
We loved it, great Greek flavours and have some lephtovers for today. Should add some onion when I'm crisping up the bacon for an even more authentic flavour.
