When you put bacon above your brisket/pork when do you do it? Before smoke or after???
Thanks,

Before for me but I have only done it twice.
Hi Nodak, for the drippings I just start out that way from the beginning. I dont know if that is right or wrong but it is what I do. ???
I only do it for brisket. It does not seem to add any pork flavor for me but does drip.
I think I am going to do HabS lower temp / lower pull temperature so will probably give it up. The lower longer temp would seem to obsolete a lot of the moisture loss - will be fun to try.
Gizmo does his boating technique with excellent brisket results also with no bacon added.
I think the bacon add is a carry over habit from chunk wood smokers where the temp would go too high if you were not on top of things. ???
Stay warm, only in the 70s here on the coast ;)
