Wow that is a load of bacon. What for set up do you use for a smoker? What cure recipe did you use?
I just use the diggingdog calculator. I don't do any special to it except brown sugar, salt and cure. I have 2 MES 40's and a 40" Masterbuilt Sportsman Elite cabinet smoker using AMZNTS and oak pellets. After slicing, I offer black pepper, chipotle, habanero and Carolina Reaper flavorings.
 
"offer black pepper, chipotle, habanero and Carolina Reaper flavorings."

If you don't mind tossing a tip or two my way. What should I look for if I wanted to incorporate the Chipotle, have, or Carolina reaper flavor?

I recently made a Carolina repaer sauce and it was super disappointing. :-(

Nothing special, I buy habanero, chipotle and reaper powder and sprinkle it on the sliced bacon before packaging
 
Well that explains the huge jump in bacon prices around here. It went from 4.99 to 7.99 a pound in two weeks.

Bacon looks great are you selling it or is it for personal consumption?

It's a small business. I don't advertise, word of mouth through friends and friends of friends. I have 12 standing orders every month and add-ins to make up 18-19 orders a month. They get 8 pounds of sliced bacon and a pound of trimmings for each order.
