Beef bacon

I have never seen beef bacon in my life. Turkey bacon,
I think. Never beef bacon, but I saw that today. I wonder
how bacon-like it is.

Funny, on my way out of the store I saw something speeding
through the parking lot. It's very windy. If it was a car I
probably would have yelled Slow Down! that's how fast it
was going. In between cars, luckily enough. This woman
managed to stop this speeding shopping cart just in time so it
didn't hit someone's car. It hit her cart right out of her hands!

Beef bacon and speeding shopping carts with no bad wheels,
two new things in one day.

I have eaten beef bacon before. Some Kosher delis offer beef bacon on
their breakfast menu, but it is often referred to as something like
"beef breakfast strips." You may be able to find beef bacon in grocery
stores where Kosher food is sold. I have eaten beef bacon two or three
times. Although beef bacon is not nearly as "baconny" as the real thing,
but its not bad for what it is.

What cut is it? Is it like a soft jerky?

It sounds like cured and cold-smoked brisket -- especially if cut from
the fatty end.

It looked expensive or I'd try it ... but you know it's not going to live
up to real bacon.

I will look next time, it did say what cut it was from, but I didn't
file that information in permanent storage. Zzzzzt, it's gone.

I've had beef bacon...once. I think it was at one of the delis we go to. I
didn't care for it at all.

Wind and shopping carts don't mix. I watched a cart roll down the parking
lot at Schnucks once. It was windy as hell and slammed right into the side
of a car at the end of the lot. It hit so hard you could hear the loud
thud. I'm guessing the damage was more than a ding.

We've had beef bacon in some hotels in Malaysia where the Muslims don't
eat pork products. It was shocking! Not that yummy bacon-y flavour at
all. Pass it by and have eggs and grilled tomatoes instead.

We get it every now and then, because the one religious aspect of my
mom's life is that she doesn't eat pork. It's not like bacon. It's not
bad, but it's very different. Turkey bacon is actually closer. It's
kind of like a tough, smoked meat that isn't quite jerky.

Gotcha. Of course I'd figured it was a religious thing, I wonder
what I'd have in place of bacon if I couldn't have it. Probably the
turkey bacon, as you say.

I had beef bacon once, (and I mean once) It had an acrid, chemical
taste that made me nauseous. I gave the rest that I bought to my
sister, who tried a few slices on her kids, who spit it out and make
yucky faces
Expensive and nasty..

SCHNUCKS!!!
Holy [censored]! Just today I was telling someone about this middle of the night
road trip, Minneapolis to Savannah I took 2 years ago and in the middle of
nowhere Illinois we stopped at a grocery store and it was like a stoners
dream, there were aisles dedicated to chips, snacks, treats, more chips,
munchies and finally ice cream. It was stunning. There was also a guy who kept
asking us if we'd been to such and such show earlier in the evening and Bad
Heather kept wondering if she should stuff the cute guy in the back of the
car, but Prudent Midwestern Heather rightfully pointed out that even the kind
of dopey, sweet guys could be secret serial killers.

ANYWAY, I was trying to remember the name of this store because it was so
weird. And here you are telling me. And it's like the moon farted rainbows all
over the planet.

Okay, I've got a phonecall to make.

Yes, there is such a thing. I passed a sign advertising it today.

Good quality beef bacon resembles pastrami more than bacon.
It's cured in a manner very similar to pastrami, but it
usually has more fat because of the cut used. It's usually
made from beef plate, but I've seen brisket point used also.
I've seen both smoked and unsmoked.

I haven't found any commercial versions I liked, but I don't
like most of the commercial bacon I come across for that
matter. The supermarket stuff is almost always pretty bad,
and that applies to beef bacon too. More so, even.

Plate! That's the word I saw that I couldn't come up with.
Thank you.

For some reason the bacon I've been buying lately has been
better than in recent years, so much so that I've been buying it
more often. But it is a hit or miss thing, and if you are picky
about your bacon, mail order really is the way to go.

ROFLMAO, Too funny of a story. I shop at a lot of stores. We have
Schnucks, TJs, Dierbergs, Straubs, ShopnSave and Aldis within a couple of
miles of the house. We also have a Penzeys in Maplewood which is not that
close but well worth the drive. So where do you shop now?
