I got this softcover from a local Savers thrift shop, for another release copy. It's very entertaining - and with some recipes that I'd like to try, such as the caramelized bacon (with dark brown sugar and red pepper flakes). There are anecdotes about bacon in the wilderness (hint: be very, very careful about bacon-loving bears), pork products in popular sayings, the debate over the best way to cook bacon (I'm an oven-baked person myself - never can get it right in a skillet), digressions into non-pork bacon (the lamb bacon sounded really good), and much more.

I plan to leave this book on a chair outside the steakhouse while stopping by for dinner; hope someone enjoys it!
