Last week I made Maple cured Bacon on the WSM. The pork belly was cured in Maple syrup, brown sugar (maple sugar is hard to find over the pond) pink salt and a bit of whiskey. After a week the cure was washed of and the meat dried for 16 hours in the fridge. Finally the belly was smoked with a mixture of hickory and apple wood for four and a half hours. The result was great.

Nice looking bacon, Frits! What temperature did you smoke it at.

Ron the WSM had a dome temperature of around 200 F and I waited until the bacon had an internal temperature of 149 F.
 
Very Nice! I'd like to see a pic of it sliced if you get a chance!
