                          lkrfletcher ok, curious on you thoughts using the pk100. How much sawdust did you end up using (and type) and how did the smoke flavor end up?

                            RadRuss if you are starting out, you may want to take a look at the Walton’s Learning Center , which can be found at the Meatgistics home page. Scroll to “How to Make Homemade Dry Rub Bacon-Recipe” it has all you will need to get started. There is a video attached that may help out.

                              Randie N - I used 1 bowl heavily soaked sawdust (Apple). Smoked based on smoke schedule posted
                              120 - 1 hour no smoke
                              135 1 hour w/ smoke
                              145 1 hour w/ smoke
                              155 1 hour w/smoke
                              185 til internal temp hit 145 - no smoke
                              You saw the pics - it got a great smoke on it.
                              The PK100 rocks

                                    cdavis l have. I am going to do a test with my next bacon project and do one with and w/o. I am thinking it adds a bit more saltiness than I like. I never did a comparison and the opportunity is approaching.

                                        cdavis l have. I am going to do a test with my next bacon project and do one with and w/o. I am thinking it adds a bit more saltiness than I like. I never did a comparison and the opportunity is approaching.

                                        YooperDog let us know what the big difference is. I did not use it on my last batch, but did add a little brown sugar and coarse black pepper prior to the smoke. I was happy with how it came out, but have wondered how the booster would have made it taste.

                                          GWG8541 I have no basis for comparison as this was my first batch. I added amounts per Jonathan and Austin’s video on dry rub bacon, The taste is great. I also added a large amount of ground up dehydrated jalepeno flakes and black pepper which further layered the taste. Maybe next time I will just do the rub and bacon flavor enhancer.
