Pork fat doesn't care. A y contaminants are pretty well fries after that. Lurpak is cold, as is everything else. Then again, wiping the knife on a cloth dies fuckakl for cross contamination.

Lurpack (the company) was formed from a grouping of several different Danish dairies in 1901. Lurpack spreadable came along 90 years later in 1991 :) .
Yes, I did my own experiments on this a while back. Posh bread or normal sliced white bread? Toasted or untoasted? With butter or without butter? Ketchup or other condiments/relishes? Anything else, like gherkins, jalapenos, rocket, lettuce? I went through all of these considerations. I found the best bacon sandwich is one made from normal untoasted white bread, butter, ketchup, and well done, leave-the-fat on bacon. That's it. There is beauty in the simplicity.
its because shes a miserable entitled talentless rich kid whose parents got her a job she is completely ill equipped for. PLEASE KEEP LUCY BEHIND THE CAMERA.
Crispy streaky bacon on a lightly toasted teacake with a drizzle of brown sauce (not HP). The savoury of the bacon contrasts with the sweetness of the raisins in the teacake. Beautiful. P.S. rocket is rank
FoodTribe finally figured out what we all want to watch. May and Lucy, ideally cooking sub-optimal 70's era sandwiches. That and Lucy's BTS work. Awesome video
"Light and blowaway"---James, you missed an opportunity there for a simile involving the bodywork of a 1973 Alpine A110. And even though Lucy's came from a machine, it still does look mighty fine.
Here in the States, Jame’s bacon sandwich would be my pick for a quick morning meal before work. Lucy’s would be called a BLT (bacon, lettuce and tomato) sandwich and would be my pick for lunch with maybe tomato soup.
Am I missing something or should there be a mashup between food tribe and drivetribe where the boys compete in challenges with food trucks of their own construction?
Needs more bacon. Also I think she over cooked the bacon 🥓 I don't want it to crunch. James sandwich sounds better for breakfast. I agree hers would make a nice lunch.
When Lucy fried her English bacon with James' streaky rashers, her bacons' flavor benefitted from the extra fat. A fair contest would have the bacon cooked separately.
James and Lucy are just so wonderful together -- this is just simply, very enjoyable to watch. Even the little zooms and sound effects are fun. Very well done.
Both of them look beautiful, but James wins especially as it's so easy to make. It's got that perfeect balance of salt, tang and sweet from the ketchup, chewiness and crispness of the bacon, melted butter, and limited soft bready resistance from the standard bread. Amazing
Is the bacon sandwich comfort food in Britain? Around here you always make a "posh" sandwich with it: smoked bacon, tomatoes, arugula, balsamic vinegar, etc
James made a bacon sandwich. Lucy made a BLT (except with rocket instead of lettuce). A BLT is a sandwich with bacon in it, but it is not a bacon sandwich. Each sandwich has its own merits and its own place - which in the case of a BLT is not in a bacon sandwich contest.
@@Jan_Iedema the meaning is that the tomato has a more prominent role in the sandwich. For example, we could say James May made a bacon with tomato sandwich (because of the ketchup), while Lucy made a tomato sandwich with bacon. The favour of the bacon would be more prominent in James May's sandwich while the tomatoes would be more prominent in Lucy's sandwich.

they massacred that poor bacon :C undercooked on too high of heat... burnt and floppy at the same time. and then sliced with a knife IN THE PAN. tragedy
When James introduced the ingredients for his version and then reached to the side, I thought he was going to reach for the brown sauce, for the win. A little piece of me died inside when it wasn't.
This was over when James pulled out the ketchup and Lucy pulled out the mayo....James's sandwich is by far the superior bacon sandwich. Lucy made a BLT and that is a completely different sandwich! But on a more serious note, more James vs Lucy vids in the future please! There is something really fun about the dynamic between them.
tom ketchup is a winner because it is a natural meat taste enhancer through tomatoes having a high umami flavour, but you can also swap out the tom ketchup for a mushroom ketchup for other meats (not in a bacon sw), works really well with homemade cornbeef
The American version is a mix of the two. Cheap bacon, fresh tomato, crisp lettuce, and mayonnaise. Bread varies from location to location. But diners usually use plain white bread.

A BLT means summer with a fresh garden tomato with lots of bacon on toasted bread. I’m so looking forward to that. But a bacon sandwich is excellent any time of year. James is correct on this one.
