    Crazy I know, but Wright brand bacon didn't fair really well. Was that a fluke?
    Interested in another comparison, check this out!

      @@thehungryhussey Wrights processes their bacon much differently than regular commercially made bacon. More of an old school way that some people may not be used to and find off putting. For each their own. Will have to try that Oscar Meyer now. Great episode, cheers.

    Right now for me it's Kirkland thick centercut
    I season then bake my bacon on a cookie sheet covered top and bottom with parchment paper in a cold oven set to 400°. Once temp is reached check for doneness every 3 minutes . Remove and save all bacon grease. This method gives no splatter/ no mess/ no cleaning simply drain into container and throw out the parchment paper

    Was Black label until grocery stopped carrying it. Prices for the factory stuff got so expensive ($11/12 pound) that i started to look at the fresh cut stuff at the butcher counter. For half the price ($6) we get a pound of pretty thick cut bacon without all the preservatives and other junk... and it tastes a thousand times better!

  • @dougford5259

  • @rmpapa-zz6vv
    @rmpapa-zz6vv หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Oscar Mayer center cut is my favorite (never had Wrights, don't care for thick cut, doesn't get crispy enough). Are you sure you didn't just buy 9 packs of bacon so you can have bacon for every meal for a week? Lol. Thats the excuse I would use, "just trying them out". Excellent idea involving your little one to play.

  • @Ahglock
    @Ahglock หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I'm going to say, best option. Find a local butcher that makes their own bacon and sausage. Near me Sonoma Meat company easily makes the best bacon I have ever had. I've tried all those brands except the first one, and its far better than any of them. I keep going in and buying 2 pounds. And then usually my wondering eye makes sure I pick up something else as well. I used to prefer the stuff I made myself, now Sonoma Meat company.

  • @conradkostelecky7935

    @jeffreystone7327 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    That was an easy taste test. No such thing as bad bacon 🥓 😂. For us it’s HORMEL BLACK LABEL THICK CUT.
    Now if you just want a bunch of bacon bits, using bacon to cook with fresh green beans and new potatoes? We have used BAR S. A little fatty at times and a little salty to use for a meal. But ok for seasoning something. Great video. Your assistant done an excellent job. God bless.

  • @rudykr3oc
    @rudykr3oc 28 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    Does Cheerwine mess with your taste buds with all that sugar? I would go with water to be fair. GV regular cut if you look for a meaty pack has always been good. I just had a pack of Food Lion regular cut this morning that was pretty good. I think it is all good if you cook it right, with some standing out.
