Comes from the shoulders, more meaty, always hardwood smoked, sliced thick.

Eating it on a sandwich with homegrown tomatoes?

The price kinda depends on the brand. I smoke Marlboro Reds, which are about $3 a pack right now - no telling what it'll be tomorrow, prices go up every day. But there are plenty of cheaper smokes too. Iran makes a few local brands that are cheap, though who knows what they put in them - might be all sorts of weird stuff, maybe even poop. Honestly, with religious folks getting into politics, anything’s possible - they could put donkey poop in a pack and say some verse in the Quran promises heaven to whoever smokes it!

 

 

What are your fuel costs? Sitting on all that oil must allow for affordable fuel. I have lots of questions. Is Iran able to be self sufficient on food or do they rely on imports? Is there a region of Iran that is acceptable for agriculture purposes? Also is it possible to to live openly as a non Muslim?

You can’t live openly as a Muslim unless you’re for the regime.

Aldi carries some pretty good bacon at a good bang for your buck too.   The course ground pepper coated is pretty much a staple in my fridge.

I appreciate that.  But I just have a thing about mail order food.  I gotta see it, inspect, get hands on it.

Fair.   Tell u what.  Order the bacon and if it isn’t top notch ….    We shall figure something out ha

I've had Nuske's a couple of times, won a 5lb bag at a meat raffle once and honestly, it was just okay for me...maybe my expectations were to high...also, it was over smokey for me....and that is coming from a guy who loves smoking meat, but I think too much smoke flavor is a bad thing as well.

I'll have to check out the peppered bacon at Aldi's though.

It's bacon so gotta be better than most anything else in the fridge correct?  If the only thing better than bacon is more bacon then it stands to reason that even bad bacon is better than no bacon.

Then I got here and opened the link, and saw that 24 oz package is 5x $$$ what I pay for the all natural, great tasting and texture bacon I've been getting, and realized money is what I have to lose!  I think I'm going to have to stick to my guns.

No worries.  Bacon is good wherever you get it from

One of the best smells in the world is when you take that crispy bacon out of a pan or skillet.  And sauté some onions in the fat.
