Bacon Up

[yakima]

Anyone with experience with this product? How does it compare with home bacon grease?

SheilaAnn and her biscuit fetish, which I fully endorse, compells this question. I typically wind up using it in the recipe, or shortly thereafter, so don't have a ready supply.

[SheilaAnn]

Never heard of it…..

[yakima]

Neither had I.
I googled "bacon grease near me", Safeway has it. It took 2 guys in the local store to find it. It was next to jugs of cooking oils. Have not opened it yet.

yakima I must admit, I've googled some strange things but "bacon grease near me" has never been one of them

@corgihouse you need to branch out. Smells like bacon grease. Have not used it.

The company advertises " Bacon Up® Bacon Grease is the convenient way to get that next-level flavor – without the fuss of frying bacon."

Bless their little pea-pickin' heart.

I have seen alot of people on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok using it on griddles and frying pans...Haven't tried any yet since I usually have bacon grease available when I need it.

Never heard of it either, does it make your bacon taste like bacon? I do know folks use bacon grease when cooking there popcorn. It's pretty tasty.

[SheilaAnn]

I’ve never tried that! And I consider popcorn a part of my food pyramid.

I was in Lowe's the other day and they had a huge display of this next to the BBQ seasonings. I almost picked up one.

[SheilaAnn]

So Lowe’s is selling a bacon grease product?

It is possible that link is "denied" as I was logged into my Account. I tried this in a different brower without my Account access:

GolfGeezer I think that when we copy/paste certain links we get that “access denied” thing. Link worked fine..

That’s said…. Personally, I’m hard pressed to use this product. I have my own bacon grease and when I run low….. I cook more bacon. Because bacon. 🤤
