2 packs maple bacon
1 cup homemade BBQ sauce
1 can of wood L’GROS JAMBON by IN-GRILL (or a perforated smoke wood smoker)

Preparation

Wrap the rings with 1 or 2 slices of bacon and make sure to wrap tightly.
Brush the ringswith the BBQ sauce and reserve on a plate.
Turn on the BBQ at maximum intensity. Unwrap the wooden can and place it on the fire. Leave to heat for 10 minutes or until it begins to smoke.
Close one side of the BBQ and place the rings on the closed side for indirect cooking.
Close the BBQ lid and cook for about 25 minutes or until the bacon is cooked and slightly crisp. Gently turn halfway trough cooking and move around for even cooking. If desired, finish cooking on direct fire for crisper bacon! Serve immediately !
