Those bacon presses do come in handy. you can get em online at amazon or elsewhere. A whole variety of sizes & weights. I like the round one I have as it fits large fry pans perfectly, is heavy, and since it is also cast iron, it get hot (wooden handle stays cool) & 'browns the bacon from the top. flat, crisp bacon in half the time!  ;)

What was the total smoke time on this?

almost 14 hours of cold smoke overnight. I could've gone even longer, but it was going to be HOT day & the ambient temps were climbing into the low 80's early in the morn.

I'm going to try this recipe, or at least style with the extra smoke.

I just ordered 20 lbs of fresh belly skin off for $2.49 a lb so I say WHY NOT!
