I've been researching and reading on here for weeks in preparation for my first attempt at Bacon. The Back bacon is out of the smoker, sat in the fridge over night, sliced, and already been part of a delicious club house sandwich! The belly bacon hit the smoker about half an hour ago. Thanks for all the help! Here's a couple pictures of the back bacon, ill post pics of the belly when its out of the smoker!

Welcome to the forum Shozzy.......looks like your well on your way smoking nirvana :D
Very nice back bacon. I know you can't go wrong with the Maple belly bacon.
and welcome to this awesome forum.
Well Bacon is done, been sliced and fried! Delicious! The only surprise was that there is no maple flavor, i used bradleys maple cure and rubbed the bellies down with maple syrup before smoking. Either way it is still delicious!
