Burgers' Pepper Bacon - Mar 2008


Last month, I complained about having difficulty differentiating all the varieties of bacon we've received. This month, we received a "pepper" bacon, so I was hopeful that it would stand out from the crowd. Unfortunately, we weren't able to detect much pepper flavor in the cooked bacon. Nevertheless, the bacon was nicely balanced, and made some very nice BLTA's. Burgers' Pepper Bacon also made a nice addition to a pasta dish with brussel sprouts and pine nuts.

Bacon ranking:
1. North Country Cob Smoked Bacon (Oct 2007)
2. Vande Rose Farms Applewood Smoked Bacon (Dec 2007)
3. (tie) Hudson Valley Smokehouse Smoked Country Style Bacon (Feb 2008)
3. (tie) Burgers' Pepper Bacon (Mar 2008)
5. Jim Oliver's Hickory Smoked Bacon (Jan 2008)
6. Tripp Country Bacon (Nov 2007)
