Bacon Sandwich

I am an expat and I eat bacon butties quite regularly; in fact, a local butcher is very keen on British cuts of meat, and he cures his own bacon.
I'll tell you what I really do miss though; Lincolnshire sausages. Must send butcher on study trip to Lincoln.Last edited by Mich the Tester; 17 February 2011, 10:25.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014 -

I must say that while some suggest using the cheapest untoasted white bread, personally I'm rather partial to getting a good white bread and cutting the slices doorstep style before smearing with butter and strong mustard and then chucking in the grilled bacon slices.

If there's an egg involved I would tend to toast however; to provide a more supportive environment for the bacon and egg.Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

Our local deli serves bacon sarnies in artisan bread paninis, accompanied with a small jar of Tiptree brown sauce, and a side salad of rocket and onion dressed in sweet balsamic. The bacon is also thickly sliced and locally sourced and tastes great too.Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
