Saturday was smoke day. Started the smoke at 5am, ended at 10pm. Ambient temps started at 23°f, hit a high of 66°f and ended at 34°f. Used a 50/50 mix of cherry and cob pellets. The bellies are aging in the fridge until friday. I cut them into thirds and vac-pac Friday.
Lighting the AmazeN expando tube. It burned 9 hours on the first load! That's a record. Longest I've had this tube burn was 8 hours.
Into the smoker.
Half way through time for more pellets
Done! Nice golden light smoke.
Resting in the fridge for 5 days, then these will be cut into thirds and vac-packed for the freezer
