      that was crazy. Bacon already has too much sodium in it, and the batter probably has more. Bet her blood pressure is through the roof!

    You could use any batter really...
    1 Dish with eggs
    1 Dish with flour, salt, pepper, (Any seasonings)
    Freeze the bacon for an hour
    Dip the becon in eggs
    Dip in the flour mixture
    --Redip of you want to double coat, start at the egg part
    Deep Fry in oil for several minutes
    You need another recipe for the gravy

    First there was Chicken-Fried Steak, then came Chicken-Fried Chicken, and now we got Chicken-Fried Bacon. I wonder what the next meat will be to be chicken-fried.
    Imagine that, Chicken-Fried Chicken or Chicken-Fried Steak with Chicken-Fried Bacon on the side. That'll give you enough gravy for BOTH!

    @gameshowguy2000 17 років тому

    Probably because Chicken Fried Bacon has double fat than that of regular bacon. (Half of the double fat comes from the bacon itself, the other half comes from the chicken-fry batter). But what about Chicken-Fried Steak or Chicken-Fried Chicken? Is that high in fat, too?

I died half way through and I'll never do it again, but this Bacon looks to be my 20th birthday stop... yum. It's always worth trying ONCE! ^^

    Well, after trying for 2 years to get out to Snook, my friend and I finally made it today and had our chicken fried bacon. The bacon had a very light batter and the cream gravy was seasoned well. The table behind us had steaks that covered the entire plate. Glad we made the trip but now my heart hurts....my cardiologist is gonna kill me. Well, I'm good for another 2 yrs. now.

    After Watching this video, my friend and I decided to make our own chicken fried bacon. I wanted to use a lighter vegetable oil, but friend said he wanted to do it right (or wrong) so we used pure lard. the strips tasted real heavy and every strip we ate we felt guilty. still it doesn't hurt to try it once.
