Bacon lovers dream come true...
Six (yes, six) strips of bacon between 2 patties and a couple slices of cheese for good measure. I had a friend who was eating a couple of these each week, so I decided to see what the big deal was. I ordered, I ate, I conquered...and I will never eat another Baconator again. |

I know you have all been losing sleep over my lack of bacon here...
I just though I would let you all know that I have found a source of good, inexpensive bacon. My taste buds are rejoicing.

I bought it a Carrefour, the French "Hypermarket". They are WalMart's greatest global competitor. Interestingly, they are here and WalMart is not.
But I digress... they have packages of delicious "streaky bacon" for $5. Much more reasonable than the $12 to $15 I was seeing. I had some a couple of weeks ago and it was perfect.

Getting pork here was never a problem. You can't really have Chinese cuisine without pork. They love pork.
Bacon has been available it was just, to my mind, grossly overpriced or just not the right kind of bacon. This is more a result of supply and demand than anything else. While the Chinese population love their pork, they are not big consumers of bacon... Char Siew yes, bacon... not so much.

BACON POPCORN!!!
2TBLSP Rendered Bacon Fat (dice up cooked bacon for later) 2 handfuls of kernels 1 large stainless steel mixing bowl splatter guard oven mitts heat bacon fat in steel mixing bowl over med flame til it ripples, toss in all the kernels and start moving the bowl around. No need for salt as bacon has already provided it. I use the splatter guard instead of a pot lid to allow steam to escape (instead of making the popcorn chewy). Keep moving the kernels to prevent burning. (You could also toss in 3-4 kernels and wait for them to pop before adding the rest of the kernels). Once it starts popping, keep it moving. I've been told to turn the heat down to low, but I haven't had any problems as long as I keep it moving. Once the popping subsides, remove from heat, top with diced bacon and dig in!

Oh yes! Now, My wife loves bacon, but cannot stand the way the house smells after our Sunday brunches, post bacon cooking. We've tried running the double fan 600 CFM range hood during cooking and after, closing all the doors in the upstairs etc, using the microwave, oven and stovetop methods for cooking, but to no avail. Then it struck me. I have a perfectly good Weber propane bbq sitting on the back deck. So, now, I line the grill with foil, shiny side up, and put the entire pack of bacon out on the foil. medium heat, turning around 5 min mark, and then pulling off just as it gets crispy putting into a serving bowl lined with paper towel. Just as good as indoors, with no smell in the house. leave the foil on the BBQ until the grease congeals, fold up and through in the trash. Presto. No pan or cookie sheet to clean, or drains getting clogged. No wife complaining about cooking smell all day long. No windows opened wide to air out the house, especially in the dead of winter. It's clearly a win-win situation. Last edited by Leto; 05-02-2008 at 08:28 AM.. Reason: Automerged Doublepost |

There are two main options with bacon..
1)Bacon Baguette Bacon + Baguette + HP Sauce (do you get this in America? If not, I suggest an import. It's amazing!) 2)Bacon + Egg bap. Bacon + fried egg (pop the yolk so it hardens over the top, flip it if need be) + ketchup + bap. Or man up and have a full English |

In a medium heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup and water over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the syrup comes to a boil. Attach a candy thermometer to the pan, increase the heat to high, and cook, without stirring, until the mixture reaches 290 degrees. Immediately remove from the heat. Stir in the butter, vanilla, baking soda, pecans and bacon bits. Watch out, the mixture will foam. When the foam subsides, pour the hot mixture onto the prepared baking sheet as thinly as possible.

kind of like putting cinammon in savoury dishes...I had a pasta meal on Friday where the sauce had pumpkin and cinnamon, plus butter and it was salty. It tasted really amazing...in a very weird way. I can't stop thinking about it because it tasted like nothing I have ever had!
I love bacon, but one of my favourites is an english style bacon sarnie. Just grill or fry bacon, get some fresh bread and open in half, rub cut halves in the bacon pan juices, stick the bacon inside, and slap on some mustard. Bring halves together and get eating! Yum
