Simply so, what is salt meat made from?

Salt pork is salt-cured pork. It is usually prepared from pork belly, or, more rarely, fatback. Salt pork typically resembles uncut slab bacon, but is fattier, being made from the lowest part of the belly, saltier, as the cure is stronger and performed for longer, and never smoked.

how long will salted meat last? Apply the second rubbing of salt about 4 days after the first, and the third rubbing about 2 weeks after the first. Age it 2 days per pound. For additional flavor and longevity, cold smoke the ham once it's cured.

You can use iodized, table, or sea salt, but there are additives in them to prevent sticking that can affect the curing process or leave sediment in your brine (i.e. pickles or pickled meats stored in brine).

What does salt beef taste like?

Corned beef is typically made from brisket, but it doesn't quite taste like ordinary roast beef, thanks to the brining process it undergoes. Corned beef hits the dinner table with a soft, tender texture and a balanced taste that's salty, spiced, sour, and meaty all at once.
