Bacon -different cuts

[dogguy]

Hi, new guy here. Waiting on my 3D arriving Monday, can't wait.
Question, most of the pork bellies that I have bought have been extremely fatty. Is there another cut of meat that I could use for regular bacon?
Thanks for any advice. My previous smoker was a st 1100 which is also a good smoker. Wanted to up my game.
Glad to be part of the family! Looking forward to learning from you good folks!

I am only aware of pork belly. Maybe side meat a little higher up and toward the hind quarters would meet your requirement . No matter what you are going to need to do some trimming.

Thanks Sarge, I'll check it out.

Other countries refer to US style bacon as 'streaky bacon' Back bacon and Canadian bacon are loins with varying degrees of fat.

Some folks use a part of the Boston Butt. I know one guy who calls it Boston Bacon. Try a google search for that.
