Double-smoked bacon

Gourmet's Ian Knauer has bacon on the brain ever since a fateful foray into one of Greenpoint, Brooklyn's omnipresent Polish groceries. The specimen in question is double-smoked, non-brine injected belly meat, has roots in the former Eastern Prussia, and is sold in Germany as Geräucherter Speck. Looks insanely delicious, no?

Mr. Knauer is also pretty certain that one's personal selection thereof over all other bacon formats is a potential indicator of, well, he's not entirely certain, but if nothing else, this meat-based emotional indexing is a lot yummier than the Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator or the MMPI. Mmmm...delicious psychological profiling.

What does your bacon selection say about you?

Another successful Orion Cooker turkey

I spent Thanksgiving day with a friend and her family out in the suburbs of Philly. My family chose, for some strange reason, to celebrate today, so I'll be heading out to a different suburb in just a little while for another round of turkey, stuffing and gravy.

Yesterday, we cooked the turkey in the Orion Cooker that we used last month in the turkey episode of Fork You. This machine can cook a variety of things, including brisket, ribs, pork butts and of course, turkey. If you add smoking chips, the turkey takes on a deep, smoky flavor. My friend tasted the bird (and she's been a vegetarian for the last ten years or so) we made last month and was so taken with it that she knew her family had to try it. The other beautiful thing about this contraption is that it uses the power of convection cooking to cook really fast. Our 13.5 pound turkey was done in 1 hour and 45 minutes.

The only downside to this cooker is that the coals are totally exposed, so if it starts to rain, like it did briefly yesterday afternoon, you run the risk of having your flame go out. When the rain started, we ran outside with umbrellas and stood around the cooker until the storm blew past. But the turkey was so good that it was worth it.

Processed meats may increase stomach cancer risk, study says

This is the part where I plug my ears and mumble "bacon is healthy, bacon is healthy, bacon is healthy." Swedish researchers have reviewed 15 different studies and concluded that eating an extra ounce of salted or smoked meat a day can increase the risk of developing stomach cancer by 15 to 38 percent. The data comes from figures taken from over 4,000 individuals in the last 40 years, Reuters reported. The study appears in the current issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute. An abstract is available here.
