Baconation

So anybody who knows me knows that I am a big fan of bacon, soft or crispy it's hard for me to pass up a good plate of bacon. The love story of bacon and myself has been a long one involving everything from regular bacon, bacon flavoured vodka, bacon soap, bacon dental floss and just about everything else you can think of. When I came across the idea of weaved bacon I seemed to be in heaven. How can one not want to have a couple pounds of delicious bacon intertwined like tasty little fingers?



It's a pretty simple concept weaving bacon, you just weave the strips as you would weave anything else. Over, under, over, under until you have a baking sheet covered in tasty bacon. Sure there is shrinkage when you cook but at the end of the cook the weave is still about half the size of when it was started. I've used bacon weaves for giant bacon sandwiches, liners on plates, to eat as is and as a topper for the meatzurgler.

All this talk of bacon is givin me the itch. I think there is some bacon in my near future...
