Thank you for this fabulous post. I made it last night and was thrilled with the results — my eyes have been opened to barley! (But...could this be made with hulled barley, I wonder?)

Erin of What I Made Yesterday

Bacon must have been the REAL food of the gods! (As opposed to ambrosia which is mentioned in mythology.) I saw my favorite use of bacon, so far, on a Dinner Impossible episode. Michael Symon dipped the crispy bacon in chocolate!!!! It was desert!!!! OMG!

As discussed ad nauseum before, you can't copyright a recipe. Most people don't know the law, especially those who seek to enforce laws that don't exist by having their lawyers send out nasty letters. And most people who don't know the law back down out of intimidation.

my year in bacon began and will end with SE-related bacon. i have saved (at great cost to me in letting it sit unused) the last three month's worth of the bacon of the month club bacon i won last december.

a pal and i are plotting a january 4 polar bear cookout that will consume them all in one last bac-orgy of pork...and because we're a little bit redneck and it's fall, there will be venison lasagna and venison pot pie too. i am certain each will have bacon included.

thanks SE gang!

I'm hooked on Black Forest bacon these days. Everything's better with bacon!
