+1. If you’re using it for wrapping, the thin stuff is best.

But for all that is holy, it needs to be made crunchy. If you take your cooked bacon and slap it on a table, it needs to shatter. None of this chewy bacon nonsense.


Clearly, you are not a bacon eater and know nothing about bacon.

Whoever taught you this did some serious damage to your food life. You can be rehabbed if you just surround yourself with people who know how to cook.


And clearly you’re one of those who puts a floppy chewy strand of bacon around their filet mignon.


Just get bacon bits and eat it straight from the jar.

There is no sense in wasting perfectly good bacon on someone who is just going to burn all the flavor out of it.

Save the real bacon for people who appreciate it and know how to cook it.

I think the regular thin supermarket bacon is better for wrapping jalapeños. Save the thick stuff for garnishing bloody Marys.

Nueske’s (applewood smoked) - available online and in specialty retailers. We used to get it through our local butcher until a family member started gifting it by mail at the holidays.

What’s everyone’s favorite brand? Looking to make some bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers.
