The only thing better than bacon is more bacon.

 

And Camarones de Papagayo
Shrimp lathered with a lobster paste, wrapped in bacon. Rich as fuck!

The best is in Puerto Nuevo (Lobster Village), south of Rosarito Beach Mexico at a place called Ortega's
If you get there, it's almost at the end of the main entrance street, on the right - fancier than most - I say this because 75% of the places there are called Ortega's.

 

Shooter used to be a bacon expert.
He ate bacon at least 5 times a week.
Shooter loved bacon.

Then he met a heart surgeon who did cardiac bypass surgery on Shooter.
She explained that in 28 years of being a heart surgeon, she had never seen a heart with such bad veins and arteries that was still functional. She showed Shooter pictures of his main arteries, and just looking at them, they looked like (completely clogged) concrete pipe. The surgeon confirmed that Shooters arteries were like trying to tie into a concrete pipe, and in fact, they had resorted to using super glue to attach one of the graphs (really, super glue, who knew they used super glue in surgery?)

Now, to be fair, there were other factors at play.
A family history that makes our family the poster family for heart disease.
Smoking for 50 years
Fat. Like, really fat.
Lazy. Like, almost sedentary.

But the thing that did it for Shooter was that in one of the photos of his cardiac arteries the artery looked a lot like a strip of bacon. Really. a big fat strip of thick sliced, cooked bacon.

so, folks, eat that bacon.
Enjoy while you can.
Oh, and PM me for the name of my cardiac surgeon.

Sorry for ruining your love fest.

 

Ok, maybe not strictly bacon...

Hawaiian jalapeno poppers

jalapeno split long way down the pepper, and seeded
Cream cheese
Canned pineapple chunks with liquid

For each half jalapeno, you'll need approximately 1 tbspn of creamcheese.

Blend cream cheese with pineapple juice, about 1tspn per half pepper.
Stuff each half with cream cheese, then a couple of chunks of he pineapple.
Wrap each popper with a single strip of raw bacon.

Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes!

 

Crab stuffed shrimp wrapped in bacon is good. The only problem is the bacon is never crispy..

 

Wire rack over sheet pan in oven. 250°
Grease in sheet pan not on bacon.
Keep an eye on it for crispness.

Hi this is how i like bacon .Take 3 rashers of thick cut bacon fry till well done drain of the fat.take i tin of Italian plumb tomatoes blended them to a juice .Put the juice into the frying pan with the bacon and simmer till it thickens to you taste.Eat with slices of bread to soak up the juice.

 

Love it, but i feel like it’s like a drug, I’m always chasing that one perfect strip that was the best high i’ve ever had...

Also, @Cherrypop i feel like your threads are the only ones in general discussions that i’m willing to risk exploring.

 

Thick cut..1/4 inch at least... Bacon... Dusted with Brown sugar... Oven baked til a slightly flexible crispy stage... And 3 fingers of straight Bourbon.... Now THATS a meal..

 

I do like bacon rarely because there is no way at all that it would fit easily into my love of Halal meats, I do prefer my foods be clean and not riddled with chemicals.

 

Years ago I tried to win an alarm clock with chemical packs. When you wake up it smells like bacon. Of course I didn't win it and they weren't put out for sale.

 

Each year at Christmas the UK supermarkets sell what they call pigs in blankets.This year they are using larger sausages
