I want to comb the thrift stores for a "jersey" with an animal on it.

And on topic, I don't think I'd ever cure my own bacon, unless that is code for something...

I would. but then, Im a bit of a freak.

And Mulli, I have a buddy brett (two t's) that i met in a kitchen in Denver a couple years ago who regularly rocks animal (specifically howling wolves) t shirts. He got me one, and I justnnever appreciated the greatness of it until I saw Bret rock it.

Thanks! I'll be giving that a try.
We bought a 1/2 hog from our neighbors and I told the butcher not to cure the bacon or ham (my son has celiacs). I received the hog back, and sure enough, the bacon wasn't cured, but was SLICED! so much for curing my own with this stuff..

Yesterday, I had bacon that was slightly chewy. I just fried some myself and it is pretty crispy with chewy bits of fats.

I like bacon either way.

Has this been resolved yet?

dcr & I tried baking it in the oven on a broiler pan (per the instructions on the package). Wasn't too bad. Could have stood to have stayed in a bit longer to make it crispier. I liked that it all got done at once...no frying making a mess everywhere, no having to keep a close eye on it, turning, etc. Next time I'll start them earlier, so it finishes at the same time as everything else.
