Chapter 279: Smoked Bacon

Lu Zhan bought more than 100 catties of pork.

He personally cut the pork into strips, salted them, and marinated them in a basket.

There are two flavors of bacon.

One only rubs salt. The other is spicy. Sichuan peppercorn noodles and chili noodles, plus salt, spread evenly on the pork, not to be spared everywhere.

After marinating overnight, put on a straw rope and leave it in a ventilated and dry place to dry until it is semi-dry.

Next, Lu Zhan borrowed a big iron bucket from Li Xiaoyun's house. It's like the deep, big iron buckets used to burn asphalt a few decades ago.

Lu Zhan put the sawdust and pine and cypress branches and leaves into the iron bucket and lit it.

The sawdust burned, and the pine and cypress branches placed on top of the sawdust began to smoke.

This smoke is the best ingredient for smoking bacon.

Lu Zhan used his spiritual power to control the fire, control the sawdust flame, keep the flame at the level of burning, and let the pine and cypress emit bigger smoke.

Place the iron grate on the top of the iron bucket, then place the marinated pork on the iron grate and start smoking the bacon.

In order to make the bacon more flavorful and authentic, Lu Zhan also covered the lid to make the smoke bigger.

More than 100 catties of pork can't be smoked in an hour or two.

He sat in the courtyard, holding a broken jade carving in his hand, while paying attention to the situation inside the iron bucket.

Every twenty minutes, he lifts the lid and flips the bacon over to allow for a more even smoke.

The smoke is thick.

Li Xiaoyun pushed open the window and stuck out her head, "Lu Zhan, are you smoking bacon?"

"yes, do you want to smoke it?"

Li Xiaoyun fanned the wind with her hand, "It's smoked to death, and my tears are choking." You hurry up and take it outside to smoke, you can't stand it. ”

Lu Zhan said: "I can't smoke it outside, I can only smoke it at home." ”

"Hurry up and finish smoking. Wait, I still have more than ten catties at home that haven't been smoked, and you help me smoke it together. ”

Lu Zhan smiled: "You bring it, I'll smoke yours first." ”

"Wait for me. ”

Li Xiaoyun changed her clothes, put on a thick down jacket, didn't put on makeup, dragged a pair of thick cotton slippers on her feet, and ran to Lu Zhan's house. He also carried a bucket in his hand, and the bucket was full of marinated pork.

"Oops, smoke me. Such a big smoke, be careful and find it for a while. ”

Lu Zhan smiled, "Yesterday, the village chief's wife was also smoking bacon. ”

Li Xiaoyun laughed, "Not bad, not bad." ”

The first pot of bacon is smoked.

Lu Zhan put a straw rope on the bacon and hung it under the eaves to dry.

Li Xiaoyun asked: "You hang the bacon downstairs, aren't you afraid that the rat will steal it?"

Lu Zhan smiled: "Don't be afraid!" There are no rats in his family at all.

Rats dare to come, come one to die one, come to a pair to die two.

Lu Zhan said again: "I'll smoke it for you first." ”

Lu Zhan picked up Li Xiaoyun's bacon and frowned slightly.

Li Xiaoyun asked, "What's wrong? The meat I bought is not good?"

Lu Zhan said: "It's not pickled well. Do you want me to re-pickle it for you? It's afternoon, and it should be ready in the evening. ”

"My mom helped me pickle, is it really bad?"

Lu Zhan didn't say much, only said: "The salt is not evenly spread. After speaking, Lu Zhan turned up a layer of skin and flesh, "You see that there is no salt in it." When smoked, the taste is definitely not good. Let's re-marinate. ”

Li Xiaoyun nodded, "Then I'll trouble you." I'm going to buy some water, what are you going to drink?"

"No, I don't. ”

Li Xiaoyun waved her hand, "I'll order you a cup of milk tea, do you want a cake?"

Lu Zhan smiled, "Then have two mousse cakes and one bread." ”

"You wait for me for a moment. ”

Li Xiaoyun hurriedly went out.

Lu Zhan put his marinated bacon into the iron bucket and continued to smoke.

Then, he carried Li Xiaoyun's bacon into the kitchen. Rinse with lukewarm water and then clean with a brush. After that, it is re-salted and salted.

Li Xiaoyun bought milk tea, as well as cakes and bread.

"Thank you!"

Lu Zhan thanked him.

Li Xiaoyun drank milk tea, "No thanks." These are my bacon?"

She asked, pointing to the skewers of meat hanging under the eaves that had not yet been smoked.

Lu Zhan nodded, "It's windy today, so it should be smoked at night." ”

Li Xiaoyun laughed, "Thank you! It's cold, I'll go back first." You call me at night. ”

"Sister Xiaoyun walked slowly. ”

Li Xiaoyun threw a flying kiss to Lu Zhan and ran away with cotton slippers.

"Hackers, cotton, gourd babies, come and eat something delicious. ”

The three of them heard that there was something delicious, and they came out of every corner.

"Woo ......"

Lu Zhan's father, Wang smelled the smell of cake.

Lu Zhan smiled: "Sister Xiaoyun bought it, you all have it." ”

He put the cake and bread in the three rice bowls.

Three of them bury their heads and eat it, it's delicious!

Lu Zhan drank milk tea, smiled, and pinched the flesh of the hacker's neck, it was so soft.

The hacker flicked his tail, shoveled, and Ben Meow was going to get angry.

Lu Zhan smiled and said, "Do you want to buy a mobile phone?"

The hacker instantly raised his head and stared at Lu Zhan, shoveling, you can be considered to remember. Ben Meow thought you were going to pay the bills.

Lu Zhan smiled: "Hurry up and eat." After eating, we went online to buy mobile phones. Let's be clear first, you can only buy a mobile phone for less than 500 yuan. ”

"Meow ......"

Ben Meow knows that it must not be more than five hundred yuan.

The hacker finished eating the cake in three or two bites, jumped on Lu Zhan's thigh, stretched out his paw and patted the back of Lu Zhan's hand, shoveling, hurry up and buy a mobile phone.

Lu Zhan took out his mobile phone and opened Jingxi.

He stroked the hacker's head, "You pick it yourself." ”

"Meow ......"

The hacker stared at the phone page with a pair of green eyes and a very serious expression.

After reading a few and not satisfied, the hacker stretched out his claws and pulled the page down.

Lu Zhan smoothed it out, my hackers use their mobile phones very slippery.

"Meow ......"

Shovel, don't underestimate Ben Meow. Ben Meow is determined to conquer the sea of stars, just a mobile phone, how can it be difficult to Ben Meow.

Lu Zhan couldn't help but smile, "Yes, yes, has Uncle Cat made a good choice?"

"Meow ......"

shoveling, Ben Meow wants to add two hundred dollars.

The hacker stretched out his paw and pointed at the screen of the phone, a 699 phone.

"You fancy this?"

The hacker flicked his tail, his eyes were very serious and persistent. It's just this one.

Lu Zhan smiled: "Are you sure?"

The hacker nodded slightly.

Lu Zhan said: "Then I placed an order." "There is really no principle at all.

The hacker pushed Lu Zhan's hand, shoveled, and hurriedly placed an order.

Lu Zhan placed an order and paid. Then tell the hacker, "It'll be delivered early tomorrow morning, and you'll have your phone to play with then." ”

The hacker jumped to the ground, looking stunned. Even the stupid and two-second gourd baby looks quite pleasing to the eye at the moment.

The hacker yelled at Cotton, and then the two of them went upstairs to watch TV together.

After eating the last bite of the cake, the gourd baby also followed upstairs.

Lu Zhan smiled and flipped the bacon in the iron bucket.

This afternoon, plus one night, Lu Zhan was busy smoking bacon.

More than 100 catties of bacon were smoked until 90 o'clock in the evening, and finally finished smoking.

After that, Lu Zhan smoked Li Xiaoyun's bacon again. While the Li family was still asleep, he personally delivered the bacon to the door.

It was Li Xiaoyun's mother who opened the door, and Lu Zhan called her aunt.

"Auntie, this is Sister Xiaoyun's bacon, please hang it up. ”

Mother Li's expression was gloomy, and her eyes looked at Lu Zhan like a searchlight, "You have a good relationship with Xiaoyun?"

It sounds a little weird.

Lu Zhan smiled, "It's not early, I'll go back first." ”

"Who? is it Lu Zhan?"

Li Xiaoyun came down from upstairs, and Lu Zhan had already left.

Li Mu made a straight face and threw the bacon on the table, "Your bacon." ”

Li Xiaoyun was very happy, "It's smoked so quickly." Lu Zhan is very good. ”

"You have a good relationship with Lu Zhan?"

"Friends. Li Xiaoyun said casually.

Mother Li said: "Lu Zhan is good, the business of the lo-mei stall is very good. ”

Li Xiaoyun frowned, and then said with a smile: "Mom, don't talk nonsense." I don't have anything to do with Lu Zhan, don't go outside and talk nonsense. ”

"Hmph! The boss is not small, he eats at home every day, lives at home, do you want face?"

Not again!

Li Xiaoyun looked irritable, and directly carried the bacon upstairs.
