Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

    Lay the thick-cut bacon strips on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle brown sugar, black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt evenly over the bacon.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Smoker

    Soak the wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes. Preheat the smoker to 225°F (107°C).

  3. 3

    Add Wood Chips

    Drain the wood chips and add them to the smoker according to the manufacturer's instructions.

  4. 4

    Smoke the Bacon

    Place the bacon strips on the smoker rack. Close the lid and smoke for about 2 to 3 hours, or until the bacon reaches your desired level of smokiness and crispiness.

  5. 5

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the bacon from the smoker and let it cool on a wire rack. Serve it warm or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
