I'd make tiny Burnt Ends, or large sized Bacon Bits outta that!
Yum!

I was wondering about that - would you use like a wire basket to contain them and shoosh 'em around a few times while they cook?

Sure, like a French Fry basket.
But the mats I got for my smoker are ~1/4" mesh. So they stay for burnt ends.
For large Bacon bits Just fry and remove with a holey spoon. (I make little bacon bits for Dutch's Wicked Baked Beans. SO Good! Nice bacon crunch hidden in the beans.)
