This is a "must try" for anyone who loves bacon!
I'm pretty new on this site but have been smoking meat for many years. Most of what I see here is good info about BBQ and smoking meats, but it sorta lacks imagination as to what to do with the products once their made. So to offer something back, I have this absolutely disgusting (and very easy) Southern recipe I use with my homemade bacon. Once you try this you will be hooked for life. It's a killer party snack and worthy of any bacon lover's obsession. This may sound like overkill to y'all, and most anyone north of Oklahoma will think your crazy (until they taste it), hell for all I know this may even be illegal in California or New York.
I like to call this "Heart attack on a plate". But as long as something tastes good, we don't worry too much about things like that down here in Texas. In the south it's OK to deep fry anything, from dill pickles to okra, so this is a natural!
1. Thick slice your favorite homemade (Or commercial if you haven't gotten around to making your own yet.) bacon into 4 inch long strips.
2. blend one large egg in 2/3 cup milk and add the bacon.
3. Mix eight parts flour with on part Lawry's season salt.
4. Dredge the wet bacon strips in the flour mix
5. Deep fry and drain the strips on paper towels.
I love to offer this to Yankees and watch their face light up when they taste it. They always ask what it is, and when I tell them, they have the most comical expressions you'll ever see!
