Last weekend, my wife heard that pork belly was on sale at Costco. She decided to pick some up and have me make some bacon since it’s so expensive. She got a nice 11 lbs. belly. So, I started curing it.

It doesn’t fit in my 18” WSM to smoke with applewood. So, we’re running the 18” and the 14” WSMs. There’s not much wind today and since I’m using the snake, things aren’t going to take off on me too badly.

Can’t really see the smoke in this pic, but it’s there. Hope y’all are having a great start to your weekend!!!

Love your yard, Dan. You're gonna have some jealous neighbors when that bacon smell starts a-wafting 😀
 
I usually pack 8 - 10 slices per vacuum sealed bag.
The wife and I empty nesters for the most part and 8 slices is way more than we can eat so we will have a couple slices each for breakfast and maybe a BLT for the second meal.
