    Very thrilled to see a true British rasher – the loin with a side bacon tail. Rare to find this in Canada. Will look up Niagara Speciality Foods. Cheers.

    I prefer to buy pea meal bacon in a large piece and cut the slices a little thicker. Other than that, my cooking method is the same. Also, buying it in a piece gives me the option of cooking it like a roast. By cooking it like a roast, it stays more moist and you can cut slices later, dice it for soups or Mac & Cheese casseroles, etc. without it drying out. To roast it, just place it, fat side up, in an appropriate sized baking dish with a lid. Add a little liquid (water, low sodium chicken stock, etc.) and bake for about 1/2 hour lidded at 350. Remove the lid and bake another 15 min. or until the top is brown. (These times are for a piece about 1.5 to 2 lbs.) Slice hot or cold.

    I'm even happier to know you enjoy peameal bacon. I love it, love it, love it. One of the many things that's nice about being Canadian.

    Those sandwiches are the bomb! I love finding them on menus ANYWHERE!

    Thanks, Robert!

    I Love that you asked this. It's actually also known as "cornmeal bacon" too.

    It's the outside coating they use to roll the cured bacon in – cornmeal. 🙂

    Absolutely – the flavor of this is much different than regular bacon – entirely different, in fact. In color, texture, flavor, size, thickness. I'm sure it's a different cut altogether. It is more closely related to a ham flavor, in my taste bud realm, anyway.

    Do try it! You'll LOVE it! I've even used it to wrap asparagus, etc.

    Kimberly 🙂

    Yum I love peameal bacon sandwiches, I had my first in Toronto 2 years ago! Loved them with lots of mustard, lettuce, tomatoes and onions. I know alot of them have mayo on them but I can't stand mayo. Great video today Kimberly!
