Tried to post this earlier but I guess it got lost in the ether.
Smoking my first bacon this weekend since it's cured for a week. I use a MasterBuilt Sportsman Elite smoker. Had only planned on doing the belly but I took some beef jerky to work and am now forced to make jerky as well.
My question is can I do the bacon on the top racks and the jerky below with the belly dripping mingled with the jerky? I have no idea what's going to come out of the pork at this point. Is it worth keeping like bacon grease? I never discard that liquid gold, it all gets consumed in some fashion.
