      I'm not sure if you are aware but you can get spam in different flavours. I think it's mainly aimed at the American market but you can buy it online. Maybe you could try and acquire a tin or two and give it a review for us. Keep up the Great work.

      Hi Gareth I've tried ham but with more oil to create more 'dip'. In deepest lancashire we call them th'oven bottom cakes. Try a ninja frying pan with lid they can cook anything. Also a bacon iron works by flattening the ham/bacon so it's nice and crispy. Keep up the good work. 👍 margarita. 😊

    Hey BFG, as you know sometimes a Gammon Steak can be a bit on the salty side, & not necessarily very tender, so, if you fancy a change, buy a gammon joint, boil as normal with peppercorns, sage, etc, then carve off thin slices for salads/sarnies as normal, BUT, if you like you can cut a THICK slice then pop it into a pan virtually dry fry it nice with egg & pineapple, it will soo tender and not salty. Also saves any waste.

      I bought a meat slicer. Cooked 2 x beef joints and 2 x pork shoulder joints in one go to save cooking cost. Let them cool and sliced & vacuum packed it all. Sunday dinner is a simple task of taking out a pack and defrosting it before cooking in onions & gravy.
      Also bought a cheap gammon joint and sliced it up. Got about 9 gammon slices for around £5.

    Yeah, done this before and it does make a tasty sarnie/roll/cob or whatever folk call them in their neck of the woods! lol First experienced this back in the 70's when our ship was in Jacksonville.There was a snack bar next to the PX (their version of NAFFI) and they did ham and egg muffins. They did all their cooking on a flat griddle and used those square ham slices. Those muffins were to die for and so I now use any left over ham just like you've done there. Another thing for you to try using is Serrano ham. You'll get it in most supermarkets (incl ALDI) and it usually has a quite a long shelf life, and it crisps up beautifully 😋

    Speaking of your frying pan brings back memories of my granny and granda who were Irish, from Northern Ireland and my granda loved his frying pan. Every day he and my granny would have a fry up of bacon, Irish sausages, eggs, fried tomato, black pudding, fried soda bread, Irish potato bread, fried in lard and beans. The pan was never ever cleaned, any juices were left over for the next days fry up and so on. Apparently it's an old Irish tradition never to clean the pan as it added a rich flavour to the fry up. Happy days 😊

    What a coincidence! An hour ago I bought the same Lancashire oven bottom muffins. Plan is to make my own version of McDonald's Sausage and Egg McMuffin, using one of these Lancashire muffins as an alternative to Warburtons English muffins. But why are these Lancashire ones called muffins? They're just burger buns, really.
    I often fry ham for egg on ham on toast. In Germany it's called a Strammer Max. Also try frying serrano ham or prosciutto.

    Had a bacon and egg myself this morning, not supposed to do (salt/saturates) but I allow myself an occasional cheat. I love fried fatty bacon then tin chopped tomatoes added to the pan to soak up all that flavour, not supposed to have tomatoes either but I am not dying a monk chewing rice. Muffins over here in Yorkshire the basic bread bun is a teacake but in Lancashire a teacake has currants, In Yorkshire that is a current teacake as apposed to a plain teacake. And in Coppull Lancashire a mouse is a moggy 😂.

    This is not uncommon Gareth. Fried or grilled ham It's always been a favourite with the Christmas Ham for me. Cut off chunks and toss them in the pan or on the bbq to make proper 'Hamburgers'
    You must try it with lettuce, tomato, cheese and mayo. They add the moisture back to the ham.

    A good idea using the ham if you are out of bacon. 👍👍. It all looked OK, but you can't beat a few slices of nice fatty bacon in a sarnie. I usually fry mine in butter and then just add a couple of slices of bread to the pan and let just one side soak up the bacon flavour and butter. Like I said before, a good idea 🤔. A better idea though, is not to run out of bacon mate 🥴🥴🥓🥓. Keep up the good work.

    I always keep a couple of tins of bacon spam in the cupboard for emergencies. Because no one should have to live without bacon.

    You need to keep some Bacon Grill, as back up for days when you run out of the proper stuff. 😋

    If you really want to experiment, try proscuitto or chorizo, but don't overdo it. The chorizo just until it starts to curl is right for me, but plenty of layers of it. You can add some sun-dried tomatoes to it to moisten it. Hmmm! 😋

      Chorizo and bacon sarny is from the gods! Had it 1st from a food stall in Skegness 2016 now I make my own regularly!

      Ooh yes I cook my chorizo in the microwave til it starts to crisp up. But you MUST cover it, and cook it in seconds and keep checking it. I cook my bacon in the microwave too. Saves loads of electricity and cleaning up

      Prosciutto is great as a bacon alternative - an unopened pack keeps for ages in the fridge too. I have fried it and oven baked it, either works.
      Chorizo I like sliced and fried gently to release the oils and crusty bread to mop it all up with.
