Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

    Lay the bacon strips flat on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure they are not overlapping.

  2. 2

    Season the Bacon

    In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, black pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the bacon strips.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Smoker

    Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C).

  4. 4

    Add Applewood Chips

    Soak applewood chips in water for at least 30 minutes. Then, drain them and add them to the smoker.

  5. 5

    Smoke the Bacon

    Place the baking sheet with bacon in the smoker. Smoke for about 2-3 hours, or until the bacon reaches your desired level of smokiness and crispiness.

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the bacon from the smoker and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
