    Marks From Grate

    When doing snack sticks I let the smoker produce the smoke. When I do bacon it's a cold smoke, I use a tin can filled with wood chips and a soldering iron. I even put a piece of wax paper between the grate and the bacon this go round so there wouldn't be any direct contact but it made it through.

    Been a long time since I Bacon'd

    Ya, 9 hrs didn't seem to be too long because by the time I got to the end of the chunk I was slicing it was already starting to warm up and get soft. They weren't a solid chunk either I could still cut them with a sharp knife and the slices were still malleable.

    Been a long time since I Bacon'd

    Alright, got everything sliced and sealed up last night. I tried something for the slicing process that a lot of you probably already do, but I never did, and I don't know why I didn't because it made everything so much easier. I put the belly chunks in the freezer for about 9 hrs while I was at...
