Bacon fans, listen up! We are heading towards a serious bacon shortage due to diseased pigs in China. While our pork is healthy, the global demand may cause prices to increase.
With Baconpalooza coming soon, I wanted to have an awesome recipe. That's hard! What do you do to improve bacon? Then I realized, bacon improves everything else. So that's when I started searching things that needed to be improved, and I found that it's just food that you add bacon to....that's it.
As a foodie, of course I love bacon! And while I may not make it every week, I do have a preferred method of cooking it that (a) doesn't make a mess and (b) always turns out perfectly-cooked bacon that isn't burned to a crisp.
I first discovered Jim Gaffigan from a TV commercial, he gets up from a desk wearing roller skates and cut off short shorts. I laughed so hard, when I heard his bit about Bacon, I learned his name. Now I finally get to talk to him, before he appears at the DECC Symphony Hall.
