Asian markets tend to have the best price on pork belly. I pay $1.50/lb. 200-225 is way to hot. Go lower if you can unless you really want your bacon precooked. After curing and rinsing, give it one more day in the fridge uncovered to form a sticky film, called the pelicle. This will help the bacon grab the smokey flavor. Enjoy.
