Overturning every two days 1 time, and after pickling 1 time, it is changed to overturning1time every day, and then marinating for 4 to 5 days, taking it out, putting it on with a rope, and hanging it in a ventilated place to dry it until it is half dry.

Sichuan bacon practice:
It has a long history and is well-known at home and abroad. The whole production process is divided into three steps: material preparation, pickling and smoking.
1.Material preparation: Fresh or frozen meat with thin skin is scraped to remove the dirt on the skin, and cut into standard ribbed strips with a thickness of 4-5cm and a thickness of 0.8-1kg. If you make boneless bacon, you have to remove the bones. 7 kg of salt, 0.2 kg of refined nitrate and 0.4 kg of pepper were used to process bacon with bones. 2.5 kg of salt for processing boneless bacon, 0.2 kg of refined nitrate, 5 kg of sugar, 3.7 kg of white wine and soy sauce, and 3-4 kg of distilled water. Before the auxiliary materials are prepared, salt and nitrate are crushed, and spices such as pepper, fennel and cinnamon are dried and ground.
2. There are three ways to pickle: (1) simply. Wipe the cut meat strips and dry marinade thoroughly, and put them into the tank in the order of meat face-down, with the top layer of skin facing up. The remain dry pickling material is apply to that upper layer of meat strips, and the meat strips are pickle for 3 days and turned over; (2) wet pickling. Marinate that cured boneless bacon in the prepare pickling solution for15-18 hours, and turning the jar twice; (3) mixed assumptions. Wipe the meat strips with plain material and put them into the tank. Pour the sterilized old pickling solution to drown the meat strips. The amount of salt in the mixed pickling should not exceed 6%.
3. Smoked bacon with bones must be rinsed and dried before smoking. Usually, 8-9 kilograms of charcoal and sawdust12-14 kilograms are needed per 100 kilograms of meat embryo. Hang the dried meat embryo in the smoking room, ignite the sawdust, close the smoking door, and make the smoke spread evenly (do not let the fire burn on the meat). The initial temperature in the smoking room is 70℃, and after 3-4 hours, it is gradually reduced to 50-56℃, and the finished product is kept for about 28 hours. Fresh bacon must be preserved for 3-4 months to make it mature.
