      I prefer north american bacon, but for the UK stuff you have a few problems here:
      1) Back bacon in N. America gets cut shorter, so there is less fat. That is kinda un avoidable unless you know your butcher
      2) If you cut the fat rind with a pair or scissors you will get less curl and more even browning
      3) Cook on much lower heat if using a pan and with some oil
      4) A lot of folks will "grill" it under the broiler instead which gives you nice crispy fat and still a juice bit of meat
      But yeah - it is cook in a sandwich or breakfast roll but super over rated (this is from a Brit living in N. America)

      I live in the southern states and we eat back bacon too and Im gonna squash this here and now. 1. Streaky bacon wins hands down in terms of flavor. Its no contest. 2. Theyre really not even the same. Back bacon is practically ham and far less fat, whereas streaky bacon is from pork belly.
      Youre not gonna convince me, most of North or South America, or any Asian country that back bacon is superior to pork belly.

      English back bacon has more meat on it. The streaky American bacon is fatty and less meat on it. Personally, I’m not picky, I would happy eat both. Both have flaws, but streaky American bacon can get really crispy when cooking it, which I adore. But, I also like the meat on the English back bacon, and it can also get crispy, not as much as the American streaky bacon, but still a nice crisp. I like both.

      Back Bacon is phenomenal if you get it from a top tear butcher, but it’s horrible if bought pre-packed.
      That’s because they inject it full of preservatives to extend its live, as well as additional water to increase the weight, which is what that vile white slime that comes out when cooking is.
      I worked at Dane Pack for just over a year, that’s how I know.

    Born and bred in the UK. Great to see it all (nearly 😂) done in a frying pan. Certainly best for flavour! It is a"fry-up" after all. I love streaky bacon perhaps a little more than the back bacon, but you've gotta START by cooking the sausages. They take the longest and the rest of it will get cold or dry before they're ready...

  • @73North265
    @73North265 Рік тому +5

    As an english man, I prefer streaky over back bacon. I recall back bacon coming in as a ‘healthy’ option back in the 80s. If available, collar bacon is superior to both, having the best bits of both. I see several people recommending Worcestershire sauce in the beans, but it is also excellent as a sauce straight onto the breakfast as it cuts the grease and adds another layer of flavour. Agree that hash browns probably are a recent addition but have definitely become a welcome new tradition.

    To stop back bacon curling - make some small cuts along the fat, like you would on a pork chop. The when it cooks the fat does not deform the bacon when it contracts, and you can get a nice flat cook! Big love Sonny - representing UK food properly

    • @markmcleish3
      @markmcleish3 Рік тому

      Absolutely right! You can also fold the skinny end of the back bacon over the big end, flip it and place that side in a cold pan on medium heat to slowly render out the fat (it's also more manageable for bacon sarnies). The white stuff is caused by excess water during the curing process. Common with most store bought back bacon. You could try and find a butcher that dry cures but you'll pay a lot more for it.

    As for canned baked beans, many Brits insist that they MUST be Heinz. I've never understood that. Unless you're talking about really cheap watery beans, all beans taste pretty much the same to me. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me if all the different brands were made in the same factory, including supermarket own-brands. (And the cheap brands probably just add more water, which could be simmered off in a pan anyway.)
    And I always tweak beans in the pan anyway by adding any combination of pepper*, powdered veg stock**, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, and Tabasco sauce.
    *Ideally powdered white pepper
    **Marigold veg stock is excellent imo
    And then add a little water, stir well, and then simmer the beans over a low heat in a pan (stirring regularly) until they become gloopy. Then serve.

    Good call on not including hash browns, they weren't a thing when I was a teenager (30+ years ago) but seem to have been added in the last 20 or so years. Fried slice is also a lot less common nowadays, you generally get toast instead. What we tend to do at home is cook the bacon first then strip the fat off once the meat is where we want it so the fat renders down in the pan and flavours everything else. Added bonus is you get crispy bacon rind with the meat being softer. Bacon isn't supposed to shatter after all :)

    Tomatoes - no olive oil, otherwise fine, certainly no herbs.
    Mushrooms - perfect, mush mushrooms are not the one, you cooked them out so they become meaty and delicious
    Eggs - perfect. Snotty egg white is foul. A touch of black pepper on top looks lovely though. Malvern salt - yes!
    Fried bread - no complaints. Adding lard is naughty but wonderful.
    Beans - no discussion required.
    Sausage - good. I think you can only get the ideal sausages for this in the UK. I also like chipolata sausages too.
    Bacon - controversial. Traditional back bacon is great in a sandwich, especially when thicker cut to give more bite. American bacon is also great, and I think offering both on the plate is a game changer, and I’ll be doing this in the future.
    Black pudding - food of gods
    I’d have a hash brown in the side.

    I think you need to try proper dry cured back bacon. No white crap coming out of it.. You need to cut the fat down the length of it and it will lie flat. Also use a burger press to colour the sausages on all side. Get a Cumberland when you get a chance. Burger presses work well with bacon as well. Great video as always.

    I’m a Brit living in America for 10 years and American bacon is my preferred. I feel British bacon is more like ham or Canadian bacon. With American bacon you render the fat and it becomes crispy and intensifies the bacon flavor. Most of my Brit mates won’t agree with me but like you say, to each their own.

    Technically that back bacon is, if you made it like 1/2 inch thick or more, a pork loin steak or in Germany "1 Minute Steak". If its thicker, it won't curl up, apparently.

    Personally I say why miss out? Streaky bacon is beautiful. Back bacon is also beautiful.
    If I'm making a bacon roll I always cook both types and make it a bacon combo! If I'm doing a breakfast I'll usually do both, but it depends on how many other items I'm also cooking. I'm happy with either as part of a larger breakfast as there are already so many other flavours and textures.

    From South Africa: Back bacon is definitely the way to go for breakfast! smothered in a decent amount of Worcertshire sauce. Streaky (USA) bacon has its uses, and I have used it for breakfast, but IMO its better purposed for recipes requiring some fatty bacon bits.
    PS. Nothing wrong with streaky (belly) bacon, so please dont hate on me!

  • @markmcleish3
    @markmcleish3 Рік тому

    Nailed it lad! Try folding the skinny end of the back bacon over the big end, flip it and place that side in a cold pan on medium heat to slowly render out the fat (it's also more manageable for bacon sarnies).
    The white stuff is caused by excess water during the curing process. Common with most store bought back bacon. You could try and find a butcher that dry cures but you'll pay a lot more for it.

    I'm an American who lives in London for the last 8 years. Streaky (American) bacon is my preferred bacon. Even how they cure bacon in the UK from most supermarkets it's way too salty tasting, where as most brands in America have a nice taste, not overly salty. Even the texture of streaky bacon is superior, as most of the time you bite into a bacon bap here in UK, you have these grisely stringy bits of fat from back bacon that is just not that appetising to be honest. Mostly bacon isn't cooked crispy enough its sometimes soggy and the fat hasn't cooked down enough... Thanks for the video!

    You can avoid the "coagulating proteins" with bacon if you buy better quality dry cured bacon. The white gunk is because cheaper bacon is pumped full of water which is released when cooked.
    Otherwise, pretty solid effort!

    For a fry up (full English breakfast) I would always go with proper bacon (back bacon). If I'm making something that needs to be wrapped in bacon then that's the only time I'd use streaky bacon. Or if I want crispy bacon, that would be streaky too.
    General rule...
    Streaky in the oven.
    Proper in a pan.

    Man, I love you, Sonny! Takes me right back to the 70's when I got to spend a few months as a teenager alone in England, Ireland and then Spain. The first bed and breakfast I stayed at was in Kildare, Ireland and served this style breakfast but added oatmeal with real cream and served the whole thing in courses. I thought I was done after a big bowl of oatmeal! WRONG! The great thing was that I couldn't refuse any of it because it was so good! Did I mention that I gained 35 pounds over the 4 1/2 months I spent there?

    Back bacon, smoked. Fry in butter. Snip the bacon on the rind (twice) and it won't curl up
    Toast instead of fried bread, not a fan
    White pudding or Black pudding from Ireland or Scotland - less spongy that the English version.
    Sausage - this is a game breaker. I prefer something with a high pork or beef content. Caramelised Red Onion a personal favourite. My ex preferred the Irish Galtee sausage which has the distinction of still looking raw even when cooked.

    As I understand it, traditional English black pudding is banned in the U. S. as it often contains sheep's lungs (as does haggis, also banned). Apart from dried blood, oats, spices etc, there's also little cubes of pig fat, giving it a characteristic look. This fat means it can be dry fried.

    Scotsman living in Ghana (West Africa) and strangely I have just had a full English today at the local coffee shop. It is served with a green salad and vinaigerette and avocado. They make toast for it rather than fried bread. I am not keen on fried bread or Hash Browns. I do like the American Home made Hash browns though. Being a Scot the "proper" accompaniment is not Hash Browns but Potato and/or Soda Scones. Obviously, the Scots tend to add Haggis as well. Back bacon rather than Streaky Bacon although I do remember growing up in the 70's and Streaky Pork was a thing (not in a Full Scottish but as a sort of a Chop) - absolutely delicious, haven't seen it for years now. I guess what I'm saying is there are many options according to your taste and that is no bad thing. Thanks for the videos Sonny, I really enjoy them.
