@BKEats I have that same bacon in my fridge. 
 

   Is it similar to the actual bacon served at Lugers? I was going to grill it in the BGE but maybe it’s not as thick as the bacon while dining at Lugers. 

 

The bacon is delicious, it's smoky and it's thick but, it's definitely not the bacon they serve there... Your best bet is to buy slab bacon and cut it yourself... I use to buy the schaller and weber slab bacon... Maybe ask for a 2 pound chunk.. Then you can cut  1 inch  slices, or have them do it at the butcher.  But, yeh, the lugers bacon is much closer to an inch or more thick, where this is just thick bacon.  the commercial package is like 2 ounces per piece..  Or an 1/8th of a pound, i would guess you want at least 2.5 to 3 x's that.. 

 

This is lugers restaurat:

maybe three times or 2.5 times bigger.. .So, I would guess each slice of bacon is like 5 to 6 ounces..
