I won a gift certificate to a local meat store today and stopped to spend it on my way home. They had this stuff labeled as bacon, but it didn't look like bacon. I asked about it and he told me they grind up a pork shoulder, season it, make a loaf out of it, smoke it, then slice it. I got some and tried it this evening and it's pretty good. The guy said he does this with his deer. Have any of you guys tried it?  |

I have made it several times. Best blt bacon out there.
Do NOT fry like bacon. Warm slices in butter. Not crispy.

Interesting! I didn't think it tasted like... or was a replacement for bacon, but I did enjoy eating it. I pan fried it last night so maybe I'll like it even better warmed up in butter. I'm going to have to give this a try on some deer in the freezer.
What do I look for at Curley's, just find "Bacon Seasoning"?
