Yeah, no limp bacon here either. I thought about your idea of using the flame thrower to crisp it up...

Cool. I'll probably fire up the WSM around 5 today. No IQ needed. Just open her up and see where she runs at. Haven't done that since I got all my gaskets in place, so it'll be a good test of those.
I mentioned cooking it on foil. I have a SS grill pan with grease cut outs.. I am going to try to gently move it to that. Don't want the bottom getting soggy. Grill pan from when I made meatloaf: Mmmm... Meatloaf. Need to make that again...

Going to start a little later than planned, but it's Friday, no big deal.
I forgot to ask, should I remove the water pan from my WSM and go direct, or keep it (empty) and use it as a deflector?

Mid-cook Pron. About an hour in and sitting about 110* IT. WSM chugging along at around 280* with all vents full open. I guess I know what temp my next brisket will be cooked at...

Ok, that was much better than I thought it would be. No explosions, so it looked pretty (enough for me), and all sorts of tasty flavors. Almost tasted like the filling of a really good Calzone, just without the crust. Wife even liked it, so I can see myself adding this to my rotation...
Thanks for the idea and all the help!

That looks great, like it was done by an old pro! Now the next one won't be as stressful for you
What pit temp, how long a cook, what IT and what kind of wood? Was the bacon crispy? We need details!

Maverick monitored the temps any where from 275* to 288*. I didn't really track the time, but I would guess it was around 2 hours, maybe 2.5. When the IT hit 165*, I used the flame thrower again to crisp up the bacon a little more. I didn't want flabby bacon, but I also didn't want it to crumble when I went to slice it. I probably could have torched it a little longer. Thanks for all the help and moral support here, especially Cowgirl for her Fatty wisdom. I went back and forth to her page many times...
