Sorry if this question has been answered before I just want to be sure I am doing my cold smoking correctly. I have a 5LB pork belly that I seasoned and cured for 2 weeks vacuum sealed and flipped daily. Last night I rinsed the pork off dried it and put it back in the fridge for 2 days before I smoke it Friday. My plan was to cold smoke it with heat at all using my offset smoker. I have a pellet tube that I am going to fill with apple wood dust. The temp outside will be around 70-75 degrees and the smoker sits under a roof next to the shed. Will it be safe to cold smoke the bacon for about 10-12 hours with no heat at all?
