Rick's BPB looks killer.  I'll bet the addition of T's Super Pig would send it over the top.  Just one more profile to the flavor column.

Yes! Yes!  One more thing that can be improved by adding bacon!  Whooda thunkit?  Bacon is one of those super flavors that folks just love.  Is there anything that can't be improved with some bacon?

I am working on a "hard glaze" for bacon - based on the bacon rub blend of flavors. It will be a like a hard candy coating.


More on that when it is ready for trial..... ;D

what kind of bacon rub are you using?  Super pig, something else or are you looking for a candy coating?  I have an idea.  Pam ★*˚°。°
