Smoker Sunday - Bottom Round

[R&K_smokersundays]

Happy smoker Sunday! We did a bacon greased bottom round that sat over night to “age” the meat. Cooked at 225 till IT reached 130 (medium rare) also had a pan of Pilsner to steam while it smoked. TFL -R&K

Good looking hunk of medium rare round.
Don't understand the "bacon greased" part though. Is that white stuff on the roast the bacon grease? Do you think it penetrates the roast as it cooks?

The bacon grease was to “dry age” the meat a bit and get the seasoning into the meat deeper. Also keep it juicy while it smoked as I’ve read it can become dry. It was something R had seen and wanted to try so we gave it a go! Turned out amazing and added bacon flavor to the meat.
