Turn Your Bear Harvest into Delicious Canadian Bacon
Ingredients:
- 1 Hi Mountain Seasonings Buckboard Bacon Cure
- 1 Bear Roast
- Brown Sugar
- Maple Syrup
Instructions:
- Follow the instructions of the Hi Mountain Seasonings Buckboard Bacon Cure, based on the size of your roast, and place the roast in a non-metallic container and refrigerate.
- We cured our smaller roast for 6 days. After 4 days, we applied brown sugar to all sides of the roast and returned it to the refrigerator. A larger roast will require another 2 days of cure time.
- After the curing, throughly rinse, soak and air dry the roast per Hi Mountain Seasonings Buckboard Bacon Cure instructions.
- Set your smoker or pellet grill to 200 degrees and begin smoking.
- When the roast reaches 145 degrees, glaze the roast with maple syrup and continue smoking until the roast reaches 165 degrees.
- Remove the roast from the smoker and let it cool on a rack.
- You are now ready to prepare Bear Canadian Bacon.
- Slice to the roast to your desired thickness and fry with butter or bacon grease - we prefer to use bacon grease for our Bear Canadian Bacon.
