MacKenzie Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 I bought a 5 pound section of pork belly and took it home to cure for bacon but when I started to trim some of the fat there was no end to it. I was left with half of the slab. A couple of days later I went into town and complained about the overly fatty pork belly, the result was that they did give me my money back. This morning I thought I'd fry up a taste test and do a sous vide egg. Here is the bacon frying, just look at that fat.:( The part that turned this breakfast cook into being placed in the jokes section is - The eggs were very fresh so there was trouble getting the shells off, even the spoon trick wouldn't work. So I thought, crack the shell on both ends, remover that and blow. I ended up blowing the most of soft yolk out of the egg and into my hand. So no pixs. Almost no egg. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekobo Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Hey @MacKenzie, you are beating me in the shopping stakes. Sounds like you got your bacon (and heart attack ) for free! Shame about the egg. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted May 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 I went shopping out of town yesterday and bought a whole pork belly and after trimming the price per pound was half what I pay at the local supermarket. It is trimmed, in two pieces and in the freezer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
