Spamel, Toddy,
A farmer friend of mine slaughters pigs for his own consumption and dry salts them, nowhere near the 5kg to 10kg salt you mention. Maybe 2kgs max. I've seen 18 hams hanging in his parlour that it would be difficult to reach around one of them. Given a few weeks of this treatment, he'll then hacksaw off a lump and slice it into thick rashers and then cook it in the oven of his Aga till its crispy - it melts in your mouth and a few rashers for breakfast is good to keep you going on the farm untill a cuppa at mid afternoon. Much more nourishing than a bowl of soggy rabbit food.

Boy am I feeling hungry right now!

The salt I mentioned is for brine curing; the link I gave is for the dry salt curing mix.
Me I'll have the rabbit food thank you, my brother *loves* the salted bacon....we have an agreement, I don't eat pickled cabbage in front of him and he doesn't guzzle dead pig near me
Cheers,
Toddy

I think that'd squick him out more than me

Sorry Ogri, I ought to have made myself clearer with the links.

I'll try and chat you on msn to talk about this. Veggi diets when camping for me normaly end up being this sort of stuff.
Beenfeast makes a good meal for one person with pasta or a meal for two if you start adding tins and more pasta393Kcal is more then the army ration curry I've got and you have pasta on top of that. This takes it up to about 650Kcal in one meal.
There are a good range of burger mixes which will give you different amounts of fats and protiens. Also dried bannanas are good. We just bought 1kg of them
