Both look good, smell good , taste good and slowly they will kill you, although….
she does have to look of
While out back of this eatery after having some excellent food, this guy about 35ish was picking up and dropping off buckets, Hogs I said?, ” yeah, this isn’t thier last meal but close he says” I grabbed a bucket to help him out
The conversation went kinda like this
” I cannot believe how wasteful people can be, they order food then eat only half, the owner and I made deal, they get some hams while I get the scraps”. No use wasting it I replied.
“They cannot sell the hams for it’s FDA approved, for personal consumption it’s fine”. Told him, when it’s time for slaughter, I’d like to buy a pork belly from you, ” sure”, we exchanged information and off he went.
If you ever buy pork belly to make bacon, they come in around 11 or 12 pounds. Thinking back what the Armydog had made mention of
The reason your bacon shrinks that you purchase from stores, is they pack it in water, and as a bonus, it’s spits at you while you are cooking it up, homemade bacon, don’t spit or shrink, low medium heat works just fine. I figure a 3/4 pounds will work as a Christmas gift for the Armydog.
