Is that 'Back Bacon' y'all refer to when talking about Canadian Bacon?

.......

I do t really know what it is or why it’s called “Canadian.”

I think it’s made up. I think it’s more like a thinly sliced ham of
some sort that’s been cut in a circle.

No idea what the thrill is.

It fits an English Muffin perfectly, and is therefore very suitable for 'Eggs Benedict'.


... or an Egg McMuffin ;-)
That is why I say it was invented for a sandwich


I have never been able to fry the stuff so it is not turned in to leather.


It's not supposed to be fried, only heated.

You are probably cooking it too long. That is already "Cured" so you
are just warming it up.

Good Lord!
These days a good 8 oz steak usually satisfies me if I have a baked
potato and roll accompanying it. Oh yeah...we can't forget a nice cold 1w oz light beer.
If I'm hungry I might move up to the 12 oz steak.


A 12 oz steak and a then worry about the beer being lite?

Coke."
(a more common order that you would think)

My wife and I usually will split an eight ounce steak. One of the
restaurants we frequent serves up what it calls a tomahawk steak and if
memory serves, the menu describes it as a 30-36 ounce steak. I've seen a
couple of patrons order one at nearby tables...I can only guess that it
is either shared or a huge chunk of meat is taken home for Fideaux.


"Tomahawk Steak" is a clever way to serve you a great big bone at
restaurant prices. All they do is leave the whole rib bone on a butt
end rib steak, similar to how you "french" lamb chops. Usually they
cut that bone off.
I bet a 36 oz Tomahawk fillets out at around 16-18 oz of meat. The
meat they cut off that bone end used to be called "plate" and it was
so cheap at Swift that my sister fed it to her dogs. Then when the
fajita craze started, they called it flank steak and charged more for
it than the rib steak.

Just looking at my keyboard, I bet 12

It is like shrimp and scallops. People tend to cook them into rubber
too.
