Where oh where can I get bacon that doesn't bleed white yucky stuff all over the pan. I believe it's added to help the bacon go brown.

Where do you live?

Buy pork belly and cure it youself. I haven't bought bacon in years. It's actually very easy to do and tatses 1005 better than any that I have ever bought in Thailand.

im always happy with TGM (thai-german meat), although its a bit more expensive. CP is cheap and will suffice. I strongly recommend against another brand that starts with "B"

The best I have tasted is from Sausage King - no white stuff as they dry cure the bacon - they do send to anywhere in Thailand

Sorry, should have said Pattaya area.

Will try the TGM.

Had some good back bacon from Bunters - buntersfoodsbkk.com - gammon steak also. I think they deliver to Pattaya.

I dont think the white gunk has anything to do with dry curing - i brine cure mine and dont have that problem as well.

Perhaps, it is a side effect of excess water retention due to the addition of phosphates -- used to make sausages more juicy, but often misused to boost the water weight of any meat product, thereby skimming a bit more cash out of a given amount of meat. Cheating, essentially. Just a guess....

Google WWMCO Pattaya, they cure all their own bacon, both smoked and unsmoked.
