    don’t know how you could go back to store bought...

    im sure LA isn’t as easy but lots of organic beef ranchers to buy from in many areas... venison is always my preference... fresh fish too... we’d all be better off sourcing foods from individuals or hunters, either ourselves or Amish etc.., for lots of reasons both health and economic.

    Last week's curing turns into this week's bacon.
    Out of the cure:

    No one has ever been to my secret mountain hideout other than me and my dog. I'm changing my privacy policy. Bring your bacon and stay as long as you like. I promise I won't bring up that Faulkner thing.

    It seems the dowry bid bar has been set, who's going to make the next bid to have Dave's hand?

    once you’re over considering in what they’ve been standing 99.99% of the pig’s life, they’re pretty ok

    About ten miles from Otter Creek Rd. That was a frighteningly close guess. I'll message you actual directions upon receipt of a sample rasher. I must maintain some level of secrecy. Even Amazon and the Jehovah's witnesses have failed to intrude on my solitude as of yet.

    Try #2 for me. 27 mins at 400 is just about right. Some were perfectly crispy, others will be perfect for a micro reheat.

    And the house smells like bacon. And my boy is doing a happy bacon dance :D :beer:

    Did you try flipping it after bout 15 min and rearrange to put the outside pieces on the inside? Also, convection or regular? I go with 375 on convection.

    Also a rack on top of the cookie sheet helps keep it krisp. Use the rendered fat to cook your eggs or French toast in.
