First Time at Bacon, with Qview

[dic1207]

Seems like a trend of people doing bacon for the first time. I used made two differnt recipes. I used Pops wet brine and a Maple dry brine. I have to say that I prefer Pops brine, the Maple dry brine came out a little salty.

I cooked the bacon in cold smoke for just over 7 hours, wasnt sure how much smoke I would like. I do think next time I will smoke the Bacon longer. After cold smoking I then brought the internal temperature of the bacon to just over 140 deg.

Chuck, evening.... I just smoked bacon at 12 -24 - 36 hours with Pitmasters Choice pellets over a 6 a day period, and all are very good... no acrid smoke flavor...  

Your bacon looks really good... enjoy....  Dave
