Two small pork bellies smoked this morning. Ended with a IT of 135 F. Odena (local grocery store) in Kakabeka Falls has had small pork bellies at a pretty good price lately so I bought two and cured them over the last 15 days. Smoked pretty much for 6 hours in the bradley smoker. Dang thing is...

Finally a super nice day on the deck here in Northern Ontario. Got the mini smoker out for its second run this afternoon. Had two nice steaks to cook up for me and the boy. They turned out excellent. Had baked potatos and veggies with the steaks. Sorry no final pictures but they were damn good.
