  • Bacon Finished

    Had these pics in the camera for a week...

    Here's the starter thread...
    http://www.smoked-meat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3209

    Got the bacon out of the cure and rinsed it off. Total cure time was 6 nights in the fridge


    Sliced off a few pieces to give it the "is it too salty" test.


    Came out excellent, so no soaking required.

    Loaded on the Lang for a cold smoke.


    With the Florida sun beating down, the smoker on my driveway can get up to 160 or so with no help from me. So I left it in my garage and vented with the garage door cracked, the side door open and the attic stairs open.

    Here's my cold smoke setup in the firebox. (Hickory chips)


    Grate temp an hour later


    12 hours later, three of the belly slabs


    And one of the bucks


    Fixin to get it on!


    Man, this stuff is GOOD! First time for the BBB. Different texture, a great, but different, bacony taste, and awesome as well!
