hello everyone

today i smoked 8 pounds of buckboard bacon using plum for smoking i have been trying plum on several different things and have been happy with it so far the only thing i don't like is it takes longer to start smoking but the flavor is nice and mild

Hey Huey, you smoked something other than salmon? Dang, I'm afraid that now you have cross contamination in your smoker. Not to worry, Skip says he will dispose of it for you, (the buck board and smoker)

looks good, Thats my next project. Terry

That oughta hold you for a while!
I had a lot of wild plum around when we lived up in Minisoda. Never tried smoking with it though.

Great lookin bacon. Have never tried plum. Was the plum store bought? Don't think I've seen any in my area. Enjoy the bacon.
