I said it before here, but the flakes I had to cut in half to fit in a jar just like Sutliff Virginia Slices, they smell and look like them. I bought a pound when I saw they were available again, worried it would be my last chance. If they are Virginia Slices I'll be happy. I'll figure it out eventually. Maybe somebody has already smoked both? I want to say though I'm not saying for sure they're the same, but they're at least similar in some ways.
