I'm pretty sure in India they drive on both sides in both directions.

 

[meatloaf109]

Kind of like South Carolina?

But, the left side is the right side to drive on!

isn't the steering wheel in the wrong place too....

Not if you're driving backwards!

Hey, I pay my state and federal taxes, plus taxes on every gallon of gas I buy that help pay for roads. I'll drive on whatever side of the road I damn well please!!! If you don't like the way I drive, get off the sidewalk!!!
I need a bacon infusion.

For the cool factor, I'd rather have a King Tiger with the Henschel turret....

"... I need a bacon infusion."

When you're right, you're right .

I like that Michael.

Now, a question for the bacon lovers. Can you successfully marinate bacon?
I'm thinking of trying to make a sweet bacon with maple syrup or similar.
Any ideas?

 

[michaelmaltby]

We have maple bacon as a "regular" style in the super-markets .... but ... I think you want to "cure" raw bacon rather than marinate cured bacon. I.e, --- buy pork belly, slice and store-refrigerate in maple syrup plus kosher salt, plus .....?

 

[Readie]

Mke your own bacon.
Brilliant idea. I hadn't thought of that.
Thanks Michael

OMG, first mustard and now marinate. Readie, forget about me coming over there - you need to come over here and get your culinary knowledge straightened out!!!

Bacon is bacon is bacon. period.

 

[Readie]

I always thought that 'American cooking' was an oxymoron

But, as I always willing to learn something new I may just take you up on that offer.

Now... off to the butchers for some nice belly pork.

 

[Bucksnort101]

OMG, why do people have to mess with perfection!!!

 

[vikingBerserker]

Kind of like South Carolina?

Especially when it comes to dirt roads!

Not really bacon John. Well actually not bacon at all, but the butchers on Ebrington Street used to salt beef for customers if you asked nicely. Maybe you and he can look at doing some maple syrup bacon?

 

[Readie]

Jones Champion?
Salt beef... now your talking
I saw a pub food on the TV last night and one guy made his own salt beef bagels. 'andsome they looked with sauerkraut and other relishes.
Guite inspiring.

For a "food" .... it had amazing clout .... historic clout ... but died a victim of its own success ..... pork bellies ... READ ALL ABOUT 'EM

There will be a "test", Njaco ....

"... I always thought that 'American cooking' was an oxymoron ..."

Haha, but ... consider this ....

... immigrants to America - the americas - didn't come for the 'cooking' my friend.... but they stayed (and thrived) for the food ...

Good eats ain't necessarily fancy eats. Possum, Coon, Squirrel, Rabbit. Beaver (tails) ... all did well in the frontier pot. Good eats ... my friend.

 

[Lucky13]

Well, since you're all talking about quality foods....
