Cooking in the frozen north

Doug in Eggmonton

Well winter has well and truly set in here. And what does one cook in winter you ask? Comfort food. What is comfort food you ask... Bacon!!!

Bacon Wrapped Potatoes that is.





with Avocado, Bocconcini and Tomato salad





My cast iron is bigger than the one than the original posted last week so the bacon didn't touch in the middle but it was still good.

All in all a decadent dinner for midweek.

Doug looks like you got it right

Lionel

are those potatoes pre cooked?

Doug in Eggmonton

Nope, just sliced thin with some onions and cheese. By the time the bacons crisp the spuds were done.

Cut them about an 8th of an inch and there were four layers in total. Cooked indirect at 400 for about 40 minutes, until the taters were soft to a toothpick and the bacon crispy.

Doug,

Your cast iron isn't bigger. Canadian bacon is smaller. It's caled the shrinkage factor :laugh:

Apparently what they call 8 inches down there is called 12 up here. Makes you think. :blink: :laugh:
