gennisis Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Does anyone know where I can get Bacon that is NOT cut wafer thin? I think I have tried just about every brand going but I still live in hopes. I like the taste of the Belucky streaky but its Oh so thin,,,cook it too long and it shrivels away to nothing. Have tried Yorkies,streaky,middle cut and gammon....too thin and tastless. So I just cant have a cheese and bacon sarnie.....life is sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farma Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 (edited) My local Makro had a range of Kitchen King bacon and sausages I found nice. There were a few varieties of bacon to choose from plus it was cut thick and had the rind on. I just found this previous thread about it. http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/English-Styl...on-t160051.html Edited February 6, 2009 by Farma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go to a foodland or villa, you should be able to find various types of bacon in the deli section un-cut and cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsaanAussie Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 (edited) Dear Bacon lovers, As with many things, when you cannot find something you want you end up having to make it yourself. Thick bacon, no worries.... Just how thick did you want me to slice it?

polecat Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Looks like gammon. Chuck a pineapple ring on it and you have English haute cuisine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsaanAussie Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 To answer both questions: The bacon is produced from the loin. Yes we have made smoked ham, tasted great. Will be constructing the new smoker soon. And to whet the appetite further for those of your planning a BBQ, and because I just like making stuff, how about this: Now, how do you call?

junkofdavid2 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Yesterday I bought a slab of smoked bacon, unsliced, at Paragon's supermarket. Brand was TGM, and this morning it tasted genuinely smoked. It's NOT together with the other TGM pre-packed products in vacuum sealed plastic bags... they had some sort of special stall inside the supermarket, with uncut/unsliced ham/bacon/bacon roll/etc. (sorta like to give the impression that it's their premium line) by TGM with a lady manning the small "slicing station" ...with an electric griller to grill samples to let customers taste the stuff for free. 350 baht per kilogram.

Nowhereman60 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I find Tesco brand bacon to be the same size as bacon I used in the USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
