Total BACON

[Weedygarden]

You all are a bad influence on me. I had to have a bacon sandwich. It was good but no lettuce or tomato. I refuse to eat store-bought tomatoes and ours are nowhere close to ripe and we didn't have lettuce so I just added more bacon.

I'm with you. Store bought tomatoes are so tasteless.
I have 3 tomatoes that are just starting to blush on my plants! I've got bacon in the freezer and some lettuce in the fridge. I'm ready for a BLT lettuce wrap.

I like the wrap idea.
Have gotta try that.

All we ever do is toast with bacon, LT.

No store bought tomatoes here either.

Bacon wrapped in bacon and for some awesome flavor, top it with bacon.

 

[RabbitsAreDelicious]

Not any real difference in taste imo. Especially in the sage filled sausage.

Oh yeah I bet

Sometimes I use toast, but sometimes I use lettuce and make a wrap. I use mayo type salad dressing in them, just like I would on a sandwich with toast.

 

[Bacpacker]

That sounds good Weedy. We'll try that. Too bad all my lettuce has bolted before the tomatos got ready.

I was thinking wrap the whole thing in a heated tortilla.

Bacon quesadillas are pretty good.

Well, maybe if you pour some green chili over it and put some grated cheese on it.

 

[Amish Heart]

Add some hot ham and cheese....

 

[Patchouli]

Somebody dropped a little bag of tomatoes off to me this evening. And another friend said she would have more cucumbers ready by Friday. Maybe I should get some BACON.
I love BLTs on toast. Really hit the spot!!!

 

[Bacpacker]

Told wife last night it was time for BLTs this weekend. We've got fresh maters.

Feast your eyes on this. They call it the "Heart Stopping BLT". The restaurant is not to far from me. I have heard they use a pound of bacon on each sandwich. After you eat one the next thing you hear is your veins slamming shut.

 

[Amish Heart]

mmmmmm that looks good

 

[phideaux]

We are going to the meat market today.
We always garb the big 5lb pack of goooood bacon.

Jim

 

[phideaux]

Some of that goooood bacon.

I love thick bacon with the rind on it. I haven't seen any in a very long time.

Ever do a second planting of lettuce after the first one bolts?

 

[Bacpacker]

Not usually, but I am gonna do a late planting of some stuff this year. Cabbage and spinach for sure, maybe some lettuce as well. I really want to grow some brusell sprouts, but timing is so critical as hot as it stays here I've never had any luck. They need to finish late Oct to early Nov here.
I am gonna build more raised beds this winter and will have more room for stuff like that next year. Already thinking about how to do a little hoop house/cold frame over the 2 I have this year. That should get me near Thanksgiving at least for whatever I have in them.

 

[backlash]

I just finished supper and I'm full but now I want bacon. Bacon for dessert, I think I may be onto a new trend.

I do not eat BLTs, to much bread,tomatoes & lettuce.

For people who eat keto, leaving the bread out and using leaf lettuce as a wrap is a good option.

So you are fond of B sammiches?

I wanted a bacon sandwich and the waitress said they didn't have bacon sandwiches so I ordered a BLT. As she turned to walk away I said hold the lettuce, then waited till she turned again and said hold the tomato. She accused me of being a smart A-- but I got my bacon sandwich.

I can leave off the lettuce..but
I gotta have mater, only if it's homegrown.

Jim

 

[Bacpacker]

Same here. Lettuce. Ok. But gotta have a slice of mater

If you wrap bacon in bacon then you have a bacon crusted bacon wrap. For some added flavor just lightly drizzle some bacon essential oil over the bacon wrapped bacon.

Don't forget the bacon grease dipping sauce and the chicken fried bacon.

 

[backlash]

My Grandparents had a bowl of bacon grease on the table for every meal. They would dip their biscuits in it. You never had to ask Grandma what she was cooking. The answer was usually fried Pork. Her cholesterol level must have been 1000 and she lived to be 94.
We keep a jar of essential oil by the stove too.

 

[phideaux]

Fry some eggs in bacon grease..then wrap them babies in the bacon...

Death by a 1000 colesterols.
