Alt bacon.

[DFB]

Damnit.
So I have had a hankering for duck.
I want to roast one soon.
I looked into the nutritional properties of duck fat.

It was interesting that duck fat is healthier than butter.

I check the interwebz and find there is a company making duck bacon.

I have a cooking show on now,and the bastard host just made pastrami bacon.
The best looking BLT ever was made from the final product.
I need some bacon now STAT!

I'd offer you some of this, but I ate it all.

But now I must find out more about pastrami bacon.

But now I must find out more about pastrami bacon.

It was the Project Smoke guy on PBS. He went through the whole process from raw pork belly,brine,to the BLT.
Then to end the episode he painted siriacha onto onion rings and wrapped them in bacon instead of battering them.
Hot smoked them for 90 minutes.
What an evil genius.

alt bacon is fun and all, but IMO, you can't top the pig.

It's still pig.
It's just cured using the pastrami process.

I was confused at first, too. I thought it was beef. Then I read a recipe and it all clicked.

Duck and duck fat are both amazing. I need more of both in my diet.

I would be interested in trying the duck bacon, but yeah the pig is going to be hard to beat.

I've made pastramied short ribs and London broil - fantastic!

And I get duck legs confit every time I see them.

Yup
The great thing with pig is you can use everything but the oink.

Alt bacon is like the alt left. It doesn't exist.
