---RANT---

I ordered a BLT for lunch recently and they asked me if I wanted salt on it.

WTF?

I said no, I think there is enough in the bacon, but some pepper would be divine. I did ask if many people put salt on their BLT and she told me yes.

Again I say WTF?

Salt on a BLT? Are you kidding me? As if mayo so thick it runs down your arms while you eat the bacon is not bad enough you want to add salt as well?

WTF?

---END OF RANT---BACK ON TOPIC---

Me likes bacon too.

Had to cook some up for lunch, along with a grilled cheese w/peppers in it and a bowl of tomato soup!

I buy the thick-cut Hormel from Sam's.

If it's a breakfast meal, I love using a little bit of the bacon grease to cook my eggs. A heart-stopper, but you only live once :P

Although I have always been a flat, straight bacon cooker, I never heard the expression "linear bacon" until I was making BLT's at the first ever New Moo House All-BLT Herf last month. The term "linear bacon" was coined by lead kitchen prep-chef, BarneysFunGirl (better half of BarneyBandMan).

Thank you.

Yeah--she grew up watching it all thrown together in the pan. I always cooked it straight and flat. She came over to my side, but had to give it a name (I say bent-in and bent-out, she says convex and concave). She's way smart like that ;)

He cures the pork himself, from the loin, and cuts it very thin in "sheets". It cooks up in butter and makes the best BLT I have ever had bar none.

I am sure my description doesn't do it justice, ask the attendee's of the SHIII, I think we pretty much said it was the best we all had ever eaten unanimously .

Their bacon is very smoky (your house will smell delicious). The black peppered bacon is the best, followed by the applewood smoked. The cob smoked is a little TOO smoky for my taste. (but that's probably just me.)
You can get it in a slab or sliced. About $9/lb http://ncsmokehouse.com

The bacon sampler here looks *mighty* nice...might be my Christmas present to myself this year ;)

Has anyone tried the bacon or hams sold by JR Cigars? They look pretty tasty.

Sergeant at Arms! Please escort the reactionary anti-baconist criminal element Neuromancer from the premises. No bruises. This time.

You are being monitored. The Great Bacon Powers didn't get great by letting reactionary anti-baconist factions run around saying whatever they please. Watch your six.

Something about bacon/pork and cigars...

Here's a pic of the makeshift grill at a herf last winter. This was after we had cooked all the bacon and moved on to the left-over Thanksgiving ham. MMMMM, good stuff.

Just about to put some bacon on the griddle to have with my steel cut oats which have been cooking all night in my crock pot.

When are we "grilling" again? It's been cold enough the last couple of nights.
