I don't use the bacon, but brine it in a mixture of water, kosher salt, maple syrup, brown sugar and bourbon. Place on smoker for about 4 hours. Wrap in foil, return to the smoker for another hour, remove, wrap in towel and place in a cooler for another hour to hour and a half. Unwrap, let rest a bit while preparing the rest of the meal and enjoy. Unbelievable!
