My current favorite is Chicken Fried Bacon.

Make batter as for chicken fried steak.
Dip bacon, and deep fry.

Serve with biscuits or mashed potatoes, all smothered with bacon or sausage gravy.

So we really need the Brits to tell us that a good old American BLT is divine?

Looks good! I like bacon once in awhile, but the best I have ever had was in a breakfast buffet in Ozark, Alabama. I took two slices, raved about it, and went for seconds, which I never usually do. It must have been the brand they used, but it was so much better than the usual Hormel's bacon. Not super salty, but sweet. I was so sorry afterward that I did not ask the waitress what the brand was.

My kids name all our pigs. One year we had Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner and Second Breakfast. The next were 4th of July, Christmas and Easter. The names didn’t always match the meals, but they were good all the same.

Dude!!!!! Thank You!!! I’ve been looking for these kinds of books FOREVER, ever since I realized that cooking is just chemistry, with a little art thrown in for appearance. I couldn’t boil eggs until that dawned on me. Alton Brown led me down that trail, but I could never find books that expounded further on what he does. This may be one of the best links (for me personally) I’ve EVER encountered on FR. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

‘I have a friend who was shot in the head and was in a coma for 3 months. When he came to he said every thing smelled like bacon. He tells me that its weird but he still loves bacon. lol’

It could have been worse, everything could have smelled like s**t.

Ruy, you must have blasted your taste buds out of whack with all that green chile. All right-thinking Americans put mayo on their BLTs. Mustard is an abomination on BLTs, although required by law for hot dogs and burgers. Have you ever tried Durkee’s, a mayor-mustard combo sauce that is a few short molecules from divine?

Their conclusion is that bacon is good because it tastes good and smells good, especially when hot...

My golden retriever can tell me that. She’s sitting up and begging for a research grant right now.
