Holy moly bacon endzzzzzza!

[FireMan]

It took me awhile to git at the 10# bag of frozen bacon ends I picked up at Nueske’s in late November when I wuz huntin. Did not know whut I wuz gittin into til I opened up the bag and lo and behold there wuz big Ol’ honkin chunks of the end of thick Ol’ bacon. I took one look & thought Hog Heaven! Cooked up way more than I could chew. Have second meal waitin on me in the fridge.

Wow. I don’t know if I could have stopped long enough to pack leftovers.

[Zman23]

Whaaat? I need to get a hold of some of these!

I used to get bacon ends at Trader Joe's. They were a staple of my diet until I started smoking pork belly for myself.

Every so often I get a 5 pound box of bacon ends from Webster City (Iowa) Meats, Edgewood (Iowa) Meats, or Bakalars in La Crosse, Wisconsin. I cook them slow on the Weber gasser or Hasty Bake, then the thinner strips get frozen to eat just as bacon strips.

I put the thicker chunks, which can be rather tough to eat directly, into the food processor to make bacon bits. Those are soooo good used as a seasoning -- simmered into baked beans or scattered on a salad.

Thinkin' boutcha, FireMan

BACON ❤️❤️🤤🤤

Bacon.

Bacon ends.

Nueske's bacon ends.

The excellence multiplies with each word in that set of three. I will have to look for this. I've had their bacon and smoked sausage before and they are out of this world.

I’m assuming this is something you can only get if you go there?

[FireMan]

‘It’s how I got my batch. Don’t know if they ship.

I looked online and didn’t see anything so I ASSumed this was pickup only. I have a friend with a cabin thats 45 mins away at my best guess so it might be worth a road trip next time I’m in the area.

See now look what you have done! Bacon ends are going on my shopping list.
I'm thinking chopped for Nachos.
Nacho way to lose weight.

I've started dicing up the bacon ends from when I cut and pack my own home cured bacon for the freezer, and keep the bacon ends for making beans and such. I can see though that they would make a nice meal too! Makes me hungry...

[HawkerXP]

Oh, my. Bacon, big, or small is one of my favorites!

Save A Lot on S Main, across from Gillies, will sometimes have boxes of Nueske’s bacon trimmings. Same sort of thing, a #10 frozen box of random sized pieces. Last time they had them they wanted $20 for the box, and I got the last one. If and when I see them again, I'll give you a shout.

Well thanks, now I have to send my iPad back to Apple cause I licked the pixels right off the screen!
My stomach is pretty upset about the whole ordeal too!
