    They’re doing it wrong.
    The secret is cheap bacon.
    So paper-thin that they would be embarrassed to sell it at the regular grocery store. We’re talking Family Dollar, so-thin-it’s-transparent, deceptively packaged bacon.

    CornKing is an example of a pretty thin bacon and it’s available at places like Wal-Mart

    If you don’t want that, then pre-cook the bacon in the microwave or oven on very low heat until it’s basically ham, then use that to wrap with.

      Lol I’ve never seen that brand before, and for some reason there’s just something hilarious to me about “Corn King brand Bacon”

      I lovingly refer to this type as “fucked up bacon”

      TFW extra-thin bacon is considered “cheap” and “fake”

      I’d pay extra for that if I had to! Though I do prefer prosciutto or serrano, they taste different in a good way.

      the problem with some of the really cheap stuff is that they bind a lot of water in it so it gets soggy anyways
