Bacon done.

Bacon came out good. Smoke 12 hours at 120. Let sit over night in fridge. Vacuum packed 6 days until I could get back to it. Freezing for 4 hours worked great!. Thanks to suggestion.

Great job on the bacon, Brian. You got some real nice smoke color on it. 12 hours of smoke?? Should taste fantastic.

What kind of wood did you smoke it with? And I'll go searching, but what is the "Freeze for 4 hours" tip?

 

[Brokenhandle]

By freezing it the bacon is easier to slice. Doesn't necessarily have to be 4 hours, just want to get it firm, not froze solid

After finishing up I can't really say that it really better than store bought. It smelled really good but not much smoke flavor. I can see where you could get creative with different flavors but think I just stick to store bought.
