About 1.5 hours/pound, usually ends up taking 12 ish hours. I usually put the rub on the day before and put the meat on the smoker at 3 or 4 in the morning then go back to bed. I really like doing it this way when camping. I just bought a pork belly today. Going to try and make some bacon.
Bacon is usually cold smoked. Can u cold smoke with yours pellet smoker?
I say "usually", because I've read where guys have smoked their pork bellies at 110* and cut the smoke time in half vs cold smoking.
I'm actually going to just have it on smoke for 3 hrs at the most. I can't cold smoke but it does stay around 150 I think on the smoke setting. I'll then take it back to the butcher who will slice it for me. It's in the fridge now for 7 days with the salt mixture on it.
