Full Fledged Farker
i started this bacon about 3 hours ago in my WSM 22. the temp is consistent at 64 degrees. its weird seeing smoke coming out the top of my lid, cool to the touch. like... very weird. im using amaze'n-maze with apple pellets with a pinch or two of hickory and sassafras. my concerns: too much smoke. its not bellowing pure white chalky smoke but its a little thicker than thin blue like im used to doing briskets and ribs. this is my first cold smoke. right now i have my Auber Temp Control fan inside the smoke to circulate air and i have all the vents open. i dont know... i was hoping for a very fine thin blue smoke. maybe im being paranoid. my plan was to do two 12 hour cold smokes at night and let it rest in the fridge for 2 weeks before slicing. im new to making my own bacon lol
