Bacon - nature's most perfect food.

Now that I have my new bbq... Yes it's GREAT done on the bbq. I wouldn't bother firing up the bbq unless I was doing other food on it too. I've been carving off large slabs of Christmas ham and doing them on the bbq too.

Not tried that place, I'll do so.

I'm told that you can wrap and wire bacon around an exhaust pipe and get nice, crisp, curly bacon plus a load of following dogs.

bacon first..or biscuits if your're a farm wife <img src="http://forums.pelicanparts.com/ultimate/smile.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Smilie" class="inlineimg"><br>

Mmmmm Bacon.

Les

Not trying to split hairs (although I doubt there is any) but that looks more like Pancetta to me.

I'm just sayin...........;)

when i did the restaurant thing....baked at 350 on parchment paper. it crisped perfectly.

aigel 12-14-2011 06:12 AM

I never eat it straight up. I only use bacon to keep things juicy: wrap small birds and put between meat on kebob skewers ...

Where is the option for broiling in the oven?

Also, grilling it is quite good!

MarkRobinson 12-14-2011 06:21 AM

Best bacon ever: lay on a BBQ grill to be flame-cooked/kissed over an open Oak fire: can't be beat!

This was the ad at the bottom of the screen. Bacon must have put it in the loop.

I should add that I tried the bacon dipped in chocolate at the county fair... it was OK but I wouldn't do it again.

AirKuhl 12-14-2011 08:57 AM

Bacon wrapped anything for me.

Pan at home griddle at work.

vash 12-14-2011 03:23 PM

man..i dont see how grilling it on a bbq grill would work. i cant keep a cheapo fatty hamburger patty from going up in flames with the dripping fat. bacon would be an inferno in my hands.

Hugh R 12-14-2011 03:25 PM

I have a heavy iron skillet with raised ridges to allow the grease to drain away.

mattdavis11 12-14-2011 04:53 PM

Of your choices, I'd say cast iron skillet, or pan fried. However, if you've never cooked bacon in a plow disk over mesquite, you ought to try it. That's one for the range. In suburbia, for the health nuts, micro wave. take a section of the morning paper and open it, lay a paper towel on both sides, lay the bacon, fold it shut and throw it in the wave for 3 minutes. Flip the paper over and cook another 3.

If you buy Wrights brand bacon, it takes longer.

djmcmath 12-14-2011 04:56 PM

MMmm, bacon. How can anyone be expected to concentrate in a world where bacon exists?

LOL, firstly I don't buy that cheap fatty sh it. The butchery I buy from uses lean free range pork then smokes it on site. Then the bbq is a gas one but I have a layer of scoria (volcanic rock) under the grill but above the gas. It seems to flare up less. If something does flare up I just move it.

The scoria is sort of a lazy man's way of getting that char grill look and taste.

We are talking bacon here... But if I might add a bbq thing I've been doing... Cut potatoes into chunks, chop up and crush a whole lot of garlic, add a little salt and boil. The garlic gets blasted through the potatoes this way. Drain off the water. Let dry for five minutes. Splash over good olive oil. Throw on the bbq. :)

Really? I would sure not want to hear any of you bacon eaters say you wouldn't eat a hot dog because of the ingredients.

I get a kick out of people ordering a donut and low fat milk. I wonder if anyone ever ordered bacon and Egg Beaters. If I witnessed that I would probably choke to death from laughter.

But, it gets worse. In the South they like to put "fat back" in the collard greens. If that isn't the perfect dichotomy, I don't know what is.

There is so much oil and fat in your digestive tract that you can't absorb the nutrients from the greens.

So, it all just slides right on out.

Of course they don't sell any 32" waist pants down there either. Or 34.
