I don't know if I've ever felt more alive than I have after eating an entire pound of bacon.

Turkey bacon? Yikes!

The BEST BACON IN THE WORLD is to be found at Peter Luger's in Brooklyn. It's an appetizer of one strip of bacon. I know that sounds paltry, but this ain't no Oscar Meyer wafer-thin shit....THIS IS QUITE SIMPLY THE MOST SUCCULENT THING YOU'LL EVER PUT IN YOUR MOUTH!

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Saturday, 21 June 2003 07:11 (twenty-two years ago)

that's turkey + bacon, not 'turkey bacon' ( = yikes)

My fave bacon dish right now is the bacon and leek stir fry at Chun King (still wish they had a better name) on Garfield Bl. in Alhambra.

Mmmm.... drool...

when i was a kid our nextdoor neighbor was this total early 1970s skinny-skateboard hardrock dude and i idolized him. he swore a lot and stuff. whenever cop cars cruised down our suburban portland street (not all that often) he'd jump out and yell

Alex, Peter Luger's charges like $40 for that one strip of bacon, don't you feel a LITTLE ripped off that you don't get, like, 3 pieces of bacon?

I've become the most carnivorous person in the world suddenly. I was out with Otis at the diner, and he was like, damn, order more meat why don't you. "I want a bacon cheeseburger, but instead of bread, can you surround it with chicken cutlets? Please also bring sausage. XOXO"

― Ally (mlescaut), Saturday, 21 June 2003 18:11 (twenty-two years ago)

I was in a hospital's waiting room once in Florida and I saw a guy with a hat that had two pigs fucking on it and it said "Makin' Bacon."

Can't eat the stuff, but that's my favorite hat ever.

I think it was mesh (i.e. trucker) too.

― hstencil, Saturday, 21 June 2003 18:15 (twenty-two years ago)

In the Midwest, I have discovered jowl bacon, which I guess is basically fried pig face. But in a GOOD way. (It looks like it's 98% fat before you cook it, but then it cooks up super-crispy. It tastes a little different from regular bacon, but I don't know how to explain in what way.)

― Tep (ktepi), Saturday, 21 June 2003 18:58 (twenty-two years ago)

(This was an opportunity to explain to the girlfriend my grocery shopping philosophy: "What's that?" "I don't know. Get me two of them.")

― Tep (ktepi), Saturday, 21 June 2003 18:59 (twenty-two years ago)

Alex in NYC is correct about Peter Luger! and it's only $2/slice or so. It's Canadian bacon though, not bacon bacon.

Does anyone know what the story is with nitrate-free bacon, by the way? How is it cured, since natural curing processes result in the formation of nitrates and nitrites? Do they just not pump in MORE n&n's like they would ordinarily? Or is it cured in some unconventional way? Based on a preliminary sampling, it tastes tasty, if a bit sweet and meaty.

Are you high? The bacon they serve is heftily thick (like Mr.Eater said, it's Canadian Bacon, officially) and more addictive that a big ol' bag of Hickory-smoked CRACK! Apart from being extraordinarily bad for you, it is virtually the perfect foodstuff. It is the culinary equivalent of listening to Killing Joke privately serenade you while getting a full body rubdown from a naked, libidinous and dewey Jordana Brewster.

I have been dry-rubbing my bacon with garlic pepper and coriander and such before cooking. It is excellent excellent stuff. Pork tummy is the world's finest meat, as Mario will have you know. Canadian bacon is not made from belly and is therefore horribly inferior. I have gotten addicted to bacon on my Caesar salads.

Ok. I'VE FUCKIN' HAD IT WITH THE "CANADIAN" BACON BASHING!!! It's smoked pork loin and it's lovely. Regular old bacon is very nice as well. Don't know wtf is better about British bacon, but I'll bet IT TASTES LIKE FUCKING BACON. **Valium kicks in**

― Bryan (Bryan), Sunday, 22 June 2003 17:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Canadian BACON = not really bacon = dud

in and of itself it tastes nice...

british bacon = much nicer than american bacon

― Dave Stelfox (Dave Stelfox), Sunday, 22 June 2003 17:50 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, the American and Canadian side or belly bacon that comes in the plastic packages is good in a pinch, though it's often quite disgusting. Most places over here have decent butcher shops where proper bacon can be purchased and is worth searching out. Canadian bacon, which we here call back bacon, is dud by nature of carrying an inappropriate name? Ok, then! (winky thingy)

― Bryan (Bryan), Sunday, 22 June 2003 17:55 (twenty-two years ago)

what's the difference? back bacon/canadian bacon is still a distant second.

― Millar (Millar), Sunday, 22 June 2003 17:59 (twenty-two years ago)

the difference is that american bacon = too fatty, too thin, tasteless, cardboard-like

british bacon comes in a variety of cuts, somked or unsmoked and even at its very worst is far more tasty and succulent than american. trust me, every british person i know (except of 2 jews and 1 moslem) who has visited america/lives there agrees with me. every american friend i have ever made bacon sandwiches for in the uk agrees, too!

I don't know if I've ever felt more alive than I have after eating an entire pound of bacon. = my favourite post ever, btw...

― Dave Stelfox (Dave Stelfox), Sunday, 22 June 2003 18:03 (twenty-two years ago)

I'll arm wrestle you over it in NYC, Millar. Back bacon is definitely not as sexy a food, anyway. Bacon bacon is PURE SEX.

This is what British bacon looks like. It's not like the streaky Oscar Mayer shite I was brought up on in the US, which I might put on a Cesar salad but only if i was desperate. I think you'll agree that the British version gives you more meat and therefore a more satisfying sandwich. And obviously it's better if it's smoked (smells better during cooking for a start).

(vegetarians: mashed avocado on toast with mayo, soy and a bit of smoked paprika plus loads of pepper will go some distance to quenching your bacon envy).

Bacon in British food item being better than its American counterpart shockah?
-- Sean (saturns...), June 22nd, 2003.

A wide range of food/drinks beat the daylights out of their American counterparts. Off the top of my head...

Bacon (obv)
Chocolate (don't really eat the stuff musch but would eat it even less if all I could get was that damnable Hershey's filth)
Cheese (what is with all that rubbery orange shit?)
Beer (Tastes much better nd you can get drunk on ours, too!)
Condiments (yes, yes... ketchup's all very well but you have yet to reach the dizzy heights of exactly HP sauce)
Mustard (Tastes like mustard)
Sausages (The jewel in the crown of British cuisine)
Pies (No one in the world appreciates the art of meat pie-making better than the British)
Tea (Lipton's schmipton's!)
Coffee (admittedly, the best you can get is usually Italian but in general British coffee tastes like coffee and does not have the colour/taste of used bathwater - but really I only need to say one word: Starbucks)

So I decided to feast myself today and I rubbed some bacon with a little garlic pepper (okay, a lot) and fried it up. Then I fried up some more bacon with garlic pepper. Now I have a pan with like 1/4" of piping hot seasoned bacon grease in it. So I decide that eight strips of bacon isn't enough for me so I take two frozen bratwursts out of the freezer (the skinny pale brats, not the Johnsonville ones, those are two good for dangerous experiments), run warm water over them for a bit and toss them in the hot bacon fat.

Minutes later with lots of prodding and poking of holes in the sausages to encourage cook-through I now have two completely excellent fried brats, fantastic buttery bacon, with a side of kimchee and two cans of MGD to wash it down. Is your life better than mine? No. It is not.

next time I'm going to get some fresh johnsonville beer brats and throw them in pre-punctured so they cook through lightning fast, and I'm going to have a proper salad instead of pickled cabbage and red pepper. The bacon will be shredded and tossed with the salad. Also there will be feta cheese and sriracha sauce involved.

I'd like to point out that having more 'meat' to your bacon doesn't make it 'better', it just makes it more like a regular pork dish and less like the American version, eg SMOKED PIGGIE FAT.

James - I've only really had it in fried rice and I'm not a big fan... I didn't like babyback ribs the one time I tried those either. Maybe bacon passes purely on its oversalty crunchyness. Now I think about it, I quite like pork crackling. I guess I just dont like the meat.

I think speck is a bit like prosciutto or somesuch.

― Innocent Dreamer (Dee the Lurker), Wednesday, 25 June 2003 14:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Poking holes in sausages is a last resort when for one reason or another the outside has turned black and well crispy already but the inside is still underdone. It's a perfectly acceptable measure when necessary. Otherwise you just end up with wasted sausage.

Newcastle Brown Ale, Boddington's and Mackeson's XXX all hail from Britain and are excellent.

Why does everybody judge a nation's beers based on the massmarket exports and ballpark draft piss alone? If I go to any country in the world and order the cheapest thing on draft I'm going to get sparkling urine and that's a fucking fact. If you give a shit about beer you find a decent liquor store and buy several different kinds of small locals, or you go to a better bar and try some of the micros on tap.

NONE of you can talk to me about beer except perhaps the Northwesterners, I live within a stone's throw of so many excellent microbreweries and brewpubs (not to mention the Brickskeller, home of the world's largest bottled beer menu (1100) and Max's on Broadway, which has 166 taps). Yeah, fuckin' dumb Americans and their stupid Bud Light.

― Millar (Millar), Wednesday, 25 June 2003 20:28 (twenty-two years ago)

and Millar, we see Boddingtons as pretty much ballpark draft stuff (at the better end yes) and there's soooo much better than that.

So tonight I did the garlic pepper bacon thing again, but only six strips this time, and I made a sandwich out of them with some pepper jack cheese and a toasted onion + poppyseed roll. Then while I was chewing on a bite of that I took a chicken breast out of the freezer and defrosted it in a bowl of water in the MW for about five minutes. Into the hot grease. BOOM! That shit was noisy as hell. I'm lucky I didn't burn myself. The chicken took a little longer than I thought it would but it turned out fantastic. Wasn't even dry like I thought it might be. I squirted some Sriracha sauce on it and had it for dessert with two pints of Boddington's.

In reading this entire thread while bored and starving at work, I don't think I came across a single non-vegetarian person who said they didn't like bacon (there probably were a couple but who cares what they say anyway?).

Does this make bacon the most universally adored food in the world? I mean, who doesn't like bacon? HOW CAN YOU NOT LIKE BACON? If there were a Willy Wonka-style candyland made entirely of bacon I'd be there all day every day eating the shit out of it!

what about pork belly?

i liek bacon but this stuff -- uncured slab -- looks gross. but from what I read pork belly is all the rage in new york's finer restaurants. any thoughts from ILE? also lardo, cured pig-fat, which I can't imagine eating.

― m coleman, Sunday, 4 November 2007 16:43 (eighteen years ago)

i love pork belly, but it's incredibly rich (obviously). i like it best when it has an even meat-to-fat ratio and is somewhat crispy. the stuff i got at fette sau was nearly 100% fat and not porky enough.

lardo i've yet to try, but i'm planning on having some next week when we go to lupa.

― lauren, Sunday, 4 November 2007 16:48 (eighteen years ago)

I picked up Beyond Nose to Tail yesterday which recommends eating thin slices of lardo wrapped around walnut halves. I made roasted pork belly a few years ago for the Blogathon:
http://www.theilliterate.com/archives/illiterati/pork4.jpg
(recipe)
Unbelievably good. Due to a mess up in giving cutting instructions for last year's pig, we ended up with sliced packages of side pork instead of full slabs of belly.

― Jaq, Sunday, 4 November 2007 17:44 (eighteen years ago)

now that looks better than the pork-belly dish my friend ordered in a restaurant. probably not that much more fat than the slab of ribs I ate last week...

dreaded doctor's appointment/physical this week has me paranoid about cholesteral :-(

― m coleman, Sunday, 4 November 2007 17:58 (eighteen years ago)

if you make up a paste of olive oil, garlic, salt and smashed up fennel seeds, rub it all over the flesh side of your slab of pork belly - chuck it in the oven at a very high heat for half an hour, then a medium heat for another hour and ahalf, you'll have a meal fit for any king, if the skin hasn't crisped, just whack the heat to max till it does. If you want some gravy, geglaze the bottom of the pan with some dry sherry, white wine or even cider.

― Porkpie, Sunday, 4 November 2007 18:04 (eighteen years ago)

can I substitute black pepper for the fennel?

― El Tomboto, Sunday, 4 November 2007 18:34 (eighteen years ago)

it might get a bit fiery but yeah, you use about a handful of fennel to make up the slush, that much pepper may get a bit....sneezy...

In celebration of one the most patriotic months of the year, the 3-location chain is debuting The ‘merica burger — a patty made of 100% ground bacon topped with a slice of thick cut bacon, a sunny side up egg, a new “bacon island” dressing and a heavy slice of bacon cheddar cheese. Bacon on bacon on bacon — apparently the only way to top their 50/50 ground beef bacon blend patty is to go 100% bacon.

when I moved to Chicago was I stoked about fuckin bacon? no.
