        lkrfletcher Looks really good Lynn, you got a good smoke on it. Make sure it is really cold when you go to slice it and keep it cool through the slicing especially if you hand slice it and clean your knife every so often. That’s how I hand slice. Enjoy your first taste!

            Still not sure how I am going to get the slices into my chamber bags. Maybe I will set them on butcher paper and try and slide them in.

              lkrfletcher you could toothpick a stack together and freeze slightly then slide them in your bags.

                When we finally cure our bellies, this is likely what we will do also unless someone else has an easier solution.

                  1. Position slices.
                  2. Freeze.

                      Great idea. I didn’t freeze mine but was able to slide into a 10" wide bag fairly easily. I just did six slices to a bag. Perfect for weekend breakfasts.

                        lkrfletcher I slice mine and just put them directly in the bags. I fold the tops of the bags over before I slide the sliced product in, I do fan it out a bit. I would send a picture, but the laptop crapped out this morning, so I have a project today to repair it.

                            Considering bacon in the next week or so, and our temps will be 20’s. If I do smoke it, it will have to be grill smoked on propane grill. Never smoked on the grill before, but all the tips here indicate its doable. I have enough room to put a foil packet of chips on a burner on the indirect side. What temp is too low for smoke adhesion?

                              Ridley Acres my cold side on my Traeger runs around 110 degrees and smoke adheres just fine. When I use the A-Maze-N maze the temps are even lower for the cheese and I have no problem there as well. With the lower temps you want a lot of smoke.
