Spicy Bacon Spamwich

[Compulsive Smoker]

I hadn’t had spam in years, but after @dr rat did his post about spam, it got me to thinking…

I threw a pack of bacon and some spam brushed with Kinder’s on the Traeger @ 300*…

Let it on for about 30 mins, then removed the bacon and cranked it up to 400 to finish the spam.
All done…

Toasted bun w/ mayonnaise

Spam and provolone…

Jalapeño jelly…

Crumbled bacon…

And the final sammie!

A lot of work to go to for spam Lol! But it was delicious! Thanks for looking!

That looks really good! Never had the jalapeno jelly before. That sounds interesting too.

That does look good. I'll be at the store later and now I'm sure some spam is gonna follow me home

Thanks Steve!

The jelly is from my post Jalapeño Jelly Failure…then (partial) Redemption it is a recipe from @DRKsmoking

Thanks for sharing, we enjoy "spam" singed in a kitchen skilled every once in a while for a grilled cheese with spam sandwich. Yours looks a whole lot better, will have to give it a try. I think we will like your version a whole lot better.

I do slice chub bologna about 3/8 in thick and put them on the grill with a little smoke and BBQ sauce to singe. I put two slices per quart zip bag to freeze for the two of us to enjoy when we want later.

In Oklahoma the local Walmart's have a Great Value brand something similar to "Spam" that to me is certainly close enough for about half the price of real labeled Spam. Even the can matches, just different print on the label. Might give that a try if you happen to see it.

I saw where you are getting into sausage making. SPAM is sausage and homemade is way better and way cheaper. There are a few threads on here about it, but here is my go to https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/spam.325410/

Can be flavored to your taste, but it is good the way it is. I slice it 1/2 inch thick and vac seal 4 pieces to a pack then freeze
