In the teens today, so a perfect day to cold smoke some bacon. Started it last weekend with a dry brine. Into the FEC this morning with the Amazen tube smoker.



Did nine hours on this one. Last time I tried 18 hrs. and it was a bit too smokey for me.



Into the fridge to mellow out for a few days, we'll see how this one comes out. Sliced off a small piece, not overpowering, this batch might be pretty good.

This batch I did for 6 hours. Did another a while back where I smoked it for about 18 hours. That one was a little too smokey for me. Don't have a slicer, I just use a really sharp knife and try to slice it thin. Some slices are more successful than others. Wink
