Bacon

[captndan]

One of my most favorite things in life. Mine that is not store bought. It's that time of year to buy bellies and make bacon. Lots of cure recipies out there and most are good. Now to cook or smoke. 165 deg. IT to me means cooking. Low temp smokeing is just that and leave the cooking to the skillet. I use the smoke after cure and cook later method. Works for me and the choice is yours but the finished bacon is not the same. Bon Apatite !

I agree, cook it in the pan....

I even cold smoke mine for a few extra hours before adding heat to the smoker to slowly bring to the finishing temperature.
