What can I say I like to experiment with meat. In preparation of my family visiting during Christmas I made some more bacon. It is quite amazing how easy it is to share homemade bacon. I tried two different cure flavorings this time. The ole standby of brown sugar and molasses was made along with a honey, ginger and cardamom. Unfortunately the honey, ginger and cardamom portion of the batch did not have a very strong flavoring. I will have to tinker with adding the flavors earlier into the curing process.

AAAAAA…All I want to for Christmas is bacon!!!
You guys missed some spread at Thanksgiving. I sure could have used some HOMEMADE BACON though.
Hope you guys are having a lovely holiday season. I just ordered Martha’s Christmas b/c of Carrie’s glowing review.
We reserved a beach house last week….It has a huge kitchen…are you in???
