Bacon Made Easy




 "Is it Bacon Day?
Homer Simpson


Cooking bacon can be a messy affair. We gave it up years ago and when we started buying Kirkland Fully Cooked Bacon at Costco. It's made by Hormel. It's thick cut, naturally wood smoked and really tasty stuff. 

Talk about fast, you can cook (i.e., heat up) ten pieces in the microwave in just 45 seconds. I usually have two pieces for breakfast each morning and that takes just 15 seconds in the microwave. There's no fuss, no muss and no having to dispose of hot bacon grease. 

The package you see above contains a pound of cooked bacon (which equals roughly 2 pounds of uncooked bacon). It sells for $10.99 and inside the resealable pouch are approximately 50 strips of bacon. A pound of good, uncooked bacon typically costs $4.99...so you basically pay $1.00 extra for the privilege of not cooking. That's a really good deal!
