Might be a Brethren Posting First: Beef Bacon?

BigBarry · 05-25-2009, 01:52 PM

Searched the site but found no references to beef bacon! Anybody ever cook it? How is it used?

Found it at Restaurant Depot. Also got a slab of pork bacon.

BACON!!!!

I'll post pics and a review when the beef bacon is done. Smells great! Smoking with K Comp and Plum chunks.

looking good send me a sample

bigabyte · 05-25-2009, 01:56 PM

Never heard of it personally. Now I want some.

Bacon · 05-25-2009, 02:10 PM

Wow,I definitely would try it, but I don't think it gets better than the hog.

TexasAggie97 · 05-25-2009, 02:17 PM

Mmmm...bacon.

bigabyte · 05-25-2009, 02:35 PM

OMG!!!!

You realize what this means don't you?

We can now rull up bacon, beef bacon and turkey bacon all together like a turducken sorta thing!

What would you call it? TurBePork Bacon Log?

Fatties will never be the same.

If it's already cured and smoked when you bought it, I would have just sliced it and cooked it like, um, regular bacon. You know to see how well it crisps up, and holds together... that's important for Moinks, ABTS and fatty wrapping...

I will try that for the next one I buy!!

Results:

Beef bacon was good. Tasted kinda like corned beef and pastrami (without the spices). I have made smoked pastrami from a corned beef before and it's kind of like that.

I foiled the fattie for another hour and it was nice. Juicy and tender.

The pork bacon was the highlight. Really juicy and tasty. I should have trimmed the skin off the bottom to remove some of the fat.

Unless you use pork sausage for the meatball part wrapped in beef bacon. Then it would be MOINK, right? Or would that make it OINKMOO?

I got some sliced beef bacon last month at RD. It was more mild than pork bacon and it did not crisp up as well. Cool to try but I will pass on it for pork bacon any time.
