Best Bacon is slow-cooked in the oven on a cookie sheet at 285 degrees for an hour and 15-20 minutes, pouring off grease and then flipping once or skip that part and it still works. Once you do it, you'll always want it that way...we do it with homemade waffles every weekend and the kids LOVE IT.

Spider, to be pure, when your time has come, don't be ground up, just jump into the hog pen. They'll know what to do.

Kris, there is a bit of genius in that post. How can one argue with the logic? Why do we have pointy teeth?
Are we to buy into the precept that we are flawed in creation and our job is to pull ourselves out of karmic debt through suffering and deprivation so that we become worthy of some higher level of being? (WHICH STILL DOESN'T INVOLVE EATING BACON?!?!?!!!!!!111111222223333444455566666686753099)

Inner City knows what's up.
Convection oven at 350 makes the best bacon.
A new discovery at the market. My two favorite things;

Then I can transcend into actually becoming the bacon.
I think most of you would end up as pig sh*t... Good way to dispose of a body though. My wife raised hogs in high school. She has told me it is not a good idea to slip and fall in the hog pen.

We covered this earier. Put the bacon on a baking rack so it drains. I do 250 for 3 hours then turn off the oven and let it stand for a while.

Eliminate grains and starch, not the fat. Bacon is your friend.
I've been eating bacon and eggs every morning (two of each) for the last couple of months, as well as cutting out all carbs (except what's slightly present in some foods), and meat and salads for lunch and dinner. So far, I've lost 25lbs, and I haven't felt this good in a long time.
Bacon!

Yeah Mooser. Look up Weston Price Foundation.
Get your carbs from fruit and veggies. No refined foods. No refined or processed sugars. No unfermented soy.
As well as weight loss, do you feel like you have more energy and less energy ups and downs?
I sure do.
The US Govs food pyramid is so wrong.

I do, ksolem. When I ate carbs (2010 and before), I always felt crappy, but didn't pay much heed to it, 'cuz it tasted so good going down. I read a book called "Why We Get Fat," and as counter-intuitive as it struck me, I had a hard time arguing with his conclusions.
My stomach literally never hurts now (whereas before, it almost always did--even when I tried gluten free stuff..and even when I started thinking about carbs...Pavlovian response, and all), my energy is solid, and I feel more steady.
I'll look up Weston Price. Thanks.

After giving up bread and beer I lost 10 lbs. I'm not in great shape cuz I don't have anywhere to train and can't get psyched.
Dr. Bluey says get back on the beers. Call me in the morning.
Fool...I thought this stuff was common sense!

http://homesicktexan.blogspot.com/2009/09/bacon-jam-recipe-make-it-at-home.html
Chipotle bacon jam
1 pound of bacon
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 sliver of onion
1-4 chipotles en adobo (depending on the level of heat you can tolerate)
2 teaspoons adobo sauce (from the can)
2 teaspoons ancho chile powder
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon ground Mexican hot chocolate
1 cup of brewed coffee
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
Black pepper to taste
Method:
Cook the bacon until fat is rendered, but not too crisp. Cut cooked bacon into two-inch sized pieces.
On medium heat, cook the onion and garlic in one tablespoon of rendered bacon fat in a medium-sized pot for two minutes. Add the cooked bacon, spices, apple-cider vinegar and coffee. Simmer on low for two hours, stirring occasionally. If jam starts to get dry, add water, 1/4 cup at a time.
After two hours, place bacon jam into a food processor, and puree for two or three seconds, tops. You just want to bring it together but still have some chunks.
edit: added 2/3 cup raisins for a chutney type jam thang.
maxed out on the chipotles as well, so the rig is gonna last us a while.
