Fire up the WSM of course!

I had a slab curing this week so it was time to smoke it.

Here's the bacon drying last night. And as long as I was making smoke, I figured I'd throw in a couple of other things. I checked the freezer and found some chicken that wasn't doing anything else so I brined that then let it dry overnight as well.


And I threw together a meatloaf:

The bacon is done and is cooling. Bumping up the temps and about to put the rest in.

Hmmm. Chicken or meatloaf for dinner?
 
Joel! Don't forget to take your camera outside WITH film! :)
Looking forward to the AWESOME FINISH!
 
First Update Hot off the smoker:

We won't be eating for a while (wife is working), but here is the chicken and the meatloaf:

The brine I used is a premix my folks gave me - lots of herb and some fruit. I made up a glaze with honey and OJ plus some Tones Citrus Grill.

The Loaf

It's going to be hard to resist this tonight. There were a few bits stuck to the pan so it was my DUTY and RESPONSIBILITY to taste them. Very good!

Final report later!
 
OKay - went with the meatloaf tonight:

Here's my first piece - yeah the smoke ring was intense!

We made good work of the next couple of slices and there will be leftovers this week.
