breakfast is the only meal i'm allowed to make

bacon fried in a pan. i like it still chewy. then i'll fry the eggs in the leftover grease.. when the eggs are almost done i put a little bit of water in the pan and cover it... steam cooks the top of the eggs without having to turn them over

Just eat a bowl of oatmeal with it, it lowers cholesterol. Unless you put butter on it like me.

I like it either way. I prefer pan fried with my eggs, and microwaved for my sandwiches.

Pan fried- pretty crispy. BTW-If you eat healthy, and avoid cigarettes and booze, you won't actually live longer- it just seems like it!

There must be a bacon fairy because everytime I go hunting, the bacon (and everything else) tastes better.

I select the leanest bacon (yeah I know it's an oxymoron) at the store, then trim off as much fat pre=frying as possible and maintain flavor. dump grease halfway throu frying, fry to almost crispy, but still chewy, remove from pan,then blot grease off with paper towels. Clean pan, spray with pan spray, fry eggs over-easy.

I use one of those microwave bacon trays, looks like a white plastic tray with a bunch of vertical fingers which hold the bacon on it's side. As it microwaves tha bacon all the grease drips down off the bacon leaving nice crip but not greasy bacon. really good for sandwiches. Some little girl invented this thing, works good.

Otherwise I use my grandmother's old cast iron skillet and fry it up good, usually two layers. Then I drain the pieces on paper. Still good but usually more greasy and not as perfect every time.

I almost never use a teflon pan, what for, bacon is greasy for Pete's sake. The aluminum teflon pans are difficult to get the right heat control and all too often it burns. And like I said, who needs teflon when you are basically frying grease?

I buy these bottled tomatoes from a brand called Zergut. They are not like fresh but make an awfully good BLT especially if you are in the woods and don't have fresh. They kind of taste like a tomato with a bit of catsup on it.
