Making flavoured bacon tips

Hey everyone, I’m looking for some tips on how to play around with different flavours when it comes to making bacon, I’ve made a batch once before using a dry cure with the pink curing salt but I followed a recipe it was for a pepper bacon and I’m wanting to do some other kinds of flavours, just confirming that as long as my curing salt measurements are correct I can add whatever else I want? For example if I wanted to do a jalapeño flavour can I just add pureed jalapeños to my pork belly and curing salt is there anything else I need to add?
