If it ain't home made bacon, it ain't really bacon. Once a person learns the importance of choosing the right bellies, choosingthe right ingredients and choosing your own brines and times, there is no going back.

Store bought is usually JC Potter or Wrights.
Just bought a couple hundred dollars from the FFA kids, Blue & Gold sale, its usually pretty good stuff.

Around here Nueskes applewood smoked is the best. The one I buy the most of because its easy to find is Patrick Cudahy applewood smoked. I buy the regular slice stuff, it works better on smoked jalepeno poppers that I’m semi addicted to. We are fortunate to have a bunch of butcher shops within 25 miles. I can think of five of them and they all have better bacon than the name brands.

Yeah, bulk cheap bacon, does have a place, as you mention.
Also for wrapping backstrap, chicken breasts, walleye loins, scallops & using in potato bacon leak chowder, etc.
But definitely not for a Caesar salad !

10 pound box of Covered Wagon. Divide as you want into freezer bags and freeze. Best value out there, and good as any bacon at any price.

We don’t eat a lot of bacon. My wife isn’t a big fan and we have the breakfast sausage I make. When i do buy bacon, it’s thick cut great value from the chinee embassy. Some major player makes it for them. I go through the packages and high grade the leanest I can find. My SIL has gotten into making bacon. It’s turned out really good. This is fresh eggs from a darts teammate, SIL’s bacon, and my DO bread. Breffes of champions.

Bacon seems very regional.
I bet Walmart and Daily's are the most popular here.
Big Buy Bacon for the poors. I like the thick cut Daily's, either honey or the peppered version. The Hungarian style fancy bacon Rancho brought up from Bozeman was REALLY good. Lean and excellent new to me flavor. We are currently eating an apple cinnamon version that is just okay, won't buy it again.

Nope. Silly "over" eggs, overcooked bacon, and unappetizing toast.
Do you burn everything? Don't show me your version of steak, please.

Well, the eggs were perfect - cooked whites and runny yolks. Bacon wasn’t burned neither. It’s called caramelized brown sugar. It was chewy, not crispy the way I like it.
Y’all are sure funny.
