  • About

This is as simple as it is scrumptious, at least if you’ve got a supply of watermelon pickles on hand. You can find the pickled rinds in Southern supermarkets, or you can make your own.

Ingredients

  • Watermelon rind pickles
  • Bacon slices, cut in thirds

Method

  1. Prepare the smoker for barbecuing, bringing the temperature to 200°F to 220°F.
  2. Wrap each watermelon rind pickle in a piece of bacon and secure with toothpicks. Transfer the tidbits to the smoker and cook them until the bacon is brown and crisp, 35 to 45 minutes. Serve hot.
