Peameal Bacon Sandwich

This Peameal Bacon Sandwich is big, heavy and delicious. Peameal bacon is wet-cured, unsmoked back bacon made with pork loin that was originally rolled in dry crushed yellow peas to help preserve it, hence the name. Now, it is rolled in cornmeal, while still sticking to the original name. It’s so tasty and with four slices of peameal bacon on each sandwich, you don’t need to worry about that wonderful flavour coming through. This sandwich has it all and I hope you give it a try.

PEAMEAL BACON SANDWICH WITH LETTUCE, TOMATO, CHEESE AND BOMBA MAYO
Recipe by Mark Calaminici | Food Loves Company
Serves 2
Ingredients
4 slices of tomato, thin or thick cut
1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
40g old cheddar, coarsely grated
40g provolone, coarsely grated
4 tbsp of mayonnaise
3-4 tbsp of bomba sauce
1-2 tbsp of salted butter
2 kaiser rolls, sliced, buttered and toasted
8 slices of peameal bacon
Method
1. Slice your tomato into thin or thick slices, your preference, set aside. Core your iceberg lettuce and slice in half. Place on flat surface and with a knife thinly slice the lettuce into shavings, set aside. With a box grater, coarsely grate the old cheddar and provolone cheese and mix them together in a bowl, set aside. Whisk together mayonnaise and bomba sauce, adding more mayonnaise or bomba sauce, depending on your taste. Place in the fridge or set aside.
2. In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, add butter and toast the Kaiser buns to your liking and set aside. You can add more butter or oil to the pan just before cooking the peameal bacon but its optional. Place the slices of peameal bacon in the pan and cook 2 to 3 min on each side. Four slices of peameal will be as is and the other 4 will have cheese on them. Add the cheese mixture onto the peameal bacon and let melt. You want to let some cheese fall onto the pan as it will create a cheese skirt and give added flavour and a bit of crunch. You can cover the pan with a lid to help speed up the melting process.
3. Lay buttered and toasted kaiser roll on work surface. Add bomba mayo to the bottom and top half of the buns. Add lettuce on the bottom half bun, top with tomato slices and then alternate peameal slices, one without cheese one with (4 slices per sandwich). Top with the top half bun. Enjoy!
Until next time, ciao!

Ryan! I love your support my friend! Thank you

Hi Mark. Can you help with this query - I made some flavoured oils, a garlic one and a chilli one by simply peeling garlic putting it in a bottle and topping it with oil and did the same with the chilli. Is this ok or should I have heated the garlic and chilli in the oil then bottled it? Is there a difference? Thanks.

[@FoodLovesCompany]

Hi! I can give some insight. It is best to gently heat the oil and garlic together and then you can strain into a bottle or leave as is. With something like chili or herbs you may be able to get away with not heating the oil up but it depends and may also take a lot longer to infuse. Hope that helps :)

[@pinterestexpress8870]

@@FoodLovesCompany great, thanks Mark.

[@omertashawty]

Shit is not done yet

[@FoodLovesCompany]

Oh it’s cooked, trust me.
It may not look cooked sometimes, that’s because it depends on the type pan you use. Sometimes you’ll see more browning and sometimes you won’t. Trust me though, it’s cooked and it’s delicious

[@omertashawty]

@@FoodLovesCompany sike you really just don’t know how to cook Canadian Bacon needs to cook for more than 3 min each side a regular pack a bacon takes at least 10 min

[@omertashawty]

Look like you literally laid it in the pan pulled it out & called it a day RAW AS HELL 🤢🤢 that’s Pork

[@FoodLovesCompany]

@@omertashawty haha well, that’s just editing my friend. I wasn’t going to show the bacon cooking for the whole time in the video. Anyways, hope you make the sandwich ✌️

[@jjburns8762]

Great recipe dude..... but come on..... only the largest big mouth could ever chomp that down.😲😲 Edit this vid to have only 2 slices of peameal, reduce the lettuce & tomato portion by a 1/2 of what you show here and you would have an almost perfect food video.😉😉

[@FoodLovesCompany]

Hahah thanks JJ! ya I know, I agree but you gotta make it look big for the video. It’s hard to get the views without going big!
Lemme tell you though, it was still very good being that big. Messy, very messy 😂 but so good.
