My Wife and Daughter wanted BLTs for dinner and Sam's had 3 pounds of thick sliced bacon on sale....A crowded house for sure.......had bacon downstairs and upstairs! I didn't get any plated pictures mostly because they bacon seems to have disappeared! :'(
If it needs to be Heated to be Eated, I can do it on my Weber!

Looks great and I'm thinking of cooking a package myself. How long did it take? You cooked it indirect and over the drip pan the whole time?
I'm new to grilling so go easy on me.

Bacon drippings are awesome as a substitute for shortening in biscuit recipes.

I make them all the time once my main cook is over - to utilize the last of the heat. Just pop a pizza stone on top the cooking grate and go to town. Flour, baking powder, salt, milk and bacon grease (or shortening, oil, whatever).

I cooked it at around 225-250 range for about 2 1/2 hours...low and slow. My family likes the bacon to be crispy whereas I like it crispy or soft so I started pulling the pieces off as they got crisp. I did it the whole way indirect and I had the charcoal grate covered with foil to catch the grease. I used my Smokenator without a water pan since I was just trying to keep a lower heat without moisture and was taking advantage of the heat shielding the Smokenator provides....did the same thing for the Ham I cooked up on the rotisserie for Easter Sunday.
