  1. I love bacon burgers but hate having to cook bacon before making a burger. I also can't keep cooked bacon sitting in my fridge more than a day or two.
    My recipe app was filled with all kinds of attempts to make a "bacon sauce". None worked as well as I hoped. Now I think I got what I was looking for.

  2. Truly, a wonderfully delicious episode, guys. After watching the Fish 'n' Chips/Shrimp Burger episode & this one, with Spice Crusted Steaks (yay, ribeye!) & Bacon Burgers, I'm now in the mood for some serious protein!

    Oh, and for sure, in a Lyonette cut, caramelized onions should be taking a healthy 20 minutes.
    Unfortunately, I know way too many people who (like my Ex & my kiddo) think turning up the heat & hurrying the cooking process actually works.

    Remember, just like making thee tenderest smoked/BBQ'd meats, "Low & Slow" goes a long way (see what I did there?) towards a perfect finished product.

    Cheers.

  3. My all time favorite Bacon is Farmer John out of California, They also make awesome sausage and hot dogs. Unfortunately, it's kind of hard to get out of California and I currently live in Utah. I do find Farmer John products in the military commissary and Target will sometimes carry the brand.
