— CAC I was going to do a review of Burger King's Bacon Sundae, as I have already reviewed it's evolutionary ancestor at Denny's, but as I am stuck on Atkins, I had to think more outside of the box.
As a man fascinated by both infinite regression and bacon, I have often wondered how many baconbaconbaconlayers one could achieve. I am not the first man to think of this:
But I am curious if a practical baconbaconbaconbaconbaconbaconbacon or higher is possible. Much like the riddle of how many times you can fold a piece of paper, is there a real limit to how much bacon can go within bacon? I'll open the floor to the morons in my quest to achieve the highest practical layer of baconx possible; and I will cook, eat, and review it here on a future bacon thread. In case you doubt my digestive abilities, I remind you I made my own bacon latte with a substance that shall forever haunt my better half's memory, "bacon-milk".
For clarity, the ideal bacon-within-bacon would use as many different kinds of bacon as possible, without the end product falling apart.

(1) Turning bacon into diamonds, or
(2) Turning diamonds into bacon?

That guy loved fried bacon and he got massively big.
Had a guilty look on his face though and I think that's why he took third place.

Yes and yes. ABTs are as you like them, the only constants being the jalapenos and the bacon. You can also cut their stem-ends off and stuff them that way, cooking them upright in a metal frame with circles cut out. A heart attack on a plate, but the perfect appetizer.

Missing: But bacon is that good. I bet if you put bits of bacon on a strip of bacon, you could travel back in time. It's like a tasty vortex.
But you can't eat bacon all day, cause it's horrible for you. You know bacon's bad when a healthier choice is a donut. And we've known bacon is bad for thousands of years. It's literally a restriction on entering certain religious. "Our rules: No Killing, No Cheating on Your Wife, No Bacon." "Oooh, what was that last one?" "No Bacon." "Aaah, I'm in the wrong line."

Drag your bacon through brown sugar, put it on a aluminum foil wrapped baking pan and bake at 400 for about 25 minutes,
Remove, put the strips on wax paper and put them in the freezer.
Make a bloody mary and use the bacon as swizzle sticks.

Nope: we keep (Torah) kosher (no meat/milk, no pork or shellfish). Turkey bacon is an acceptable substitute for the real thing for us.
Local grocer has house-brand "uncured" tukry bacon, VERY thick slabs, reminds me a lot of "Canadian" bacon. Pretty decent.
Biggest downside to turkey bacon A9was about to type "biggest downside to TB" but that didn's sound right) is no drippings. OTOH, we *do* have shmaltz (chicken fat).
Mmmm...shmaltz.

Thanks to DD#3 and The Boy (her fiance) buying into the "fat is bad for you" tripe, there was bacon left over from breakfast.

15 bean soup made with the last 1 lb. 6 oz. of Easter ham tonight. Made in a crock pot. Tastes great, dinner in about five minutes.

A close second to bacon is smoked mozzarella. Just had some and it really has a wonderful bacon like smokiness to it.
"Poodle Dicks"
1 package of little smokies sausage
1 lb of bacon
1 cup of brown sugar or to taste
1. preheat oven to 350
2.Cut bacon in thirds and wrap each piece around the sausage. place several wrapped sausages on a wooden skewer. Arrange'em on a baking sheet and sprinkle with sugar.
3. bake until sugar is melted and bacon is crispy.

I almost bought pork ribs today but they were $12.
Posted by: Mama AJ at April 15, 2012 05:47 PM (XdlcF)
When we "went kosher" I missed baby back ribs the most. However: found beef (back?) ribs, pretty much the same thing, actually a bit less expensive, 90% as good. Cook 'em pretty much the same as the pork version...I prefer the AB (Alton Brown) method.

The Hobbit is largely a kid's book despite it's prequel status.
LOTR is adult all the way. And Tolkien's word painting is just amazing. You will enjoy it.

The ULTIMATE in pork is the pork Quad-fecta. This consists of sausage-stuffed pork chops, wrapped in bacon, battered with crushed pork skins and deep fried. Tastes even better than it sounds.
