Started smoking the bacon ends of the bellies I've been curing. They always turn out good. 2 weeks of Allied Kenco brown sugar cure. Now about 6 hours of smoke cause I like smoke

I'm a little confused by your post. Are you curing the entire bellies for bacon and these are the pieces you trim from the cured bellies for better size or are you doing something else with the remainder of the bellies?

Either way, I'm all about some bacon! :)

Most of it will go towards pintos, blackeyes and butterbeans. Some will get chopped and fried for clam chowder.
