It's just crazy enough to work
Today is bacon-making day. Calloo Callay.
Our pork belly has been curing for a week, and now's the day of truth. I will attempt to smoke the bacon in the grill, something I've never tried. First, the belly gets his little pop-out bellybutton.
Wait, is that a curl of smoke from under the lid, coming from those hickory chips?
Okay, gotta go back and play with my pork.

On the whole, smoking in the grill was not exactly easy, but it all went as planned, without any hitches, and it seems to have turned out well. Taste test still to come.
