Tips & Notes

  • High Altitude (3500-6500 ft):

    In step 2, increase simmer time to 8 to 10 minutes.

  • Health Focus

    Slash a little fat by trying turkey bacon. It has the same smoky flavor as pork bacon but much less fat. One slice of regular bacon weighs in at about 6 grams of fat per slice versus turkey bacon at roughly 1/2 gram of fat per slice.
