KFC has a chicken sandwich with out the bun, I wonder if we can get a bacon sandwich with no bread so two bacon buns(compressed Bacon) with bacon and cheese inside?

 

[TheMan]

I'm not debating the definitions. I'm just saying that there is a difference between being opinonated and being self-righteous. Do you not agree that I can have opinions about alot of stuff thus making me opinonated but not thinkg I or my opinions are better than yours?

I do agree with that statement. You can have opinions and not think they (or yourself) are better than mine. But, if you have an opinion and your opinion is that you and your opinion are better than mine isn't that still being opinionated? I don't think there is a clear cut line where being opinionated turns into being self righteousness.

Or am I just being opinionated? Lol

two bacon baskets with some pulled pork in the middle.

 

[TheMan]

After further thought, it appears that our opinions on the subject are just us being opinionated lol. The only solution is to deport the debate, so...

I'm packing the debate up in my bag:

And sending it here:

If it's lucky it will get to see baconhenge on it's way:

 

[brewagentjay]

I can't argue with that bacon.

 

[Zamial]

as for the "ultimate bacon"...

In Snook Texas there is a diner (guessing the only one there) that servers country fried bacon. That is correct, breaded and deep fried bacon...

If you ever get the chance, chocolate covered bacon is also really good. (It is very similar to a chocolate covered pretzel.)

I will not post a link but there is a "thank god for bacon" song. I am sure google will produce it quickly...

[motobrewer]

wisconsin state fair has had chocolate covered bacon for a couple years now.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

This kicks more ass than anything that has ever kicked ass before.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

Oh yeah and the Texas State Fair has Deep Fried Bacon too.

 

[brewagentjay]

Thoughts:

I (and a lot of guys here) have outgrown the drink to get drunk phase of life, but everyone has to go through that phase so whatever...

Jager burns the sinuses when it comes out your nose.

Bacon is the duct tape of the kitchen, it fixes everything.

OK, Jarhead...you don't know a damned thing about me so listen up because I don't want to repeat myself...I've earned the right to be self-righteous, opinionated and judgemental!:rockin:

I just retired (in June) with 36 years, 9 months and a couple of days of Federal service to this country. I was Active Army in Artillery (I worked on the M102, M114, and M198 Towed, M109 and M110 Self-Propelled Howitzers) for 7 years (1972-1980 and no, I did not go to 'Nam).

I have been to every Army, fort, base, camp, station and US Kaserne in the US, Germany, Italy and Korea...many more than once and several MANY, MANY times. Unfortunately, none in SWA because I've been training my 4 replacements for the past 2 years.

I spent a minimum of 15 weeks (many more over 20 weeks) a year on the road supporting the soldiers.

Sure I was young once. I joined the Army at 17 when the draft was still on. Afterwards I spent almost 30 years as a Department of the Army Civilian. I was a GS-12 (equivilant rank of Major) from 1996 to retirement.

I know everything there is to know about every small arms the Army has. I worked in Direct Support as a Small Arms Repairer and Inspector for 5 years and supported them for another 20 plus.

I've worked and taught soldiers and civilians on every towed artillery piece up to the triple 7. But I have performed M777 modifications at Forts Lewis and Sill as well as Goose Creek.

My last job (6+ years), I was the Equipment Specialist for the Paladin, M109A6 155mm Self-Propelled Howitzer. I've been to Anniston Army Depot, AL at least a dozen times on the Paladin program, as well as modifying the 120mm Mortars. I also did this Germany and Korea while working the Paladin. I was responsible for all the technical actions for the howitzer to include provisioning, maintenance, writing and updating the TMs, applying modifications. Whenever soldiers or civilians had a problem in the field I was the person they would call. I went to Korean every year for the last 6 years to teach the Paladin Digital Fire Control System to civilians and mechanics.

The 9 years I spent in Germany were for our collective Uncle. While there I did two tours in Kosovo as an Armament Logistics Assitance Representative (LAR). I was NOT A CONTRACTOR!!!! . I supported all the weapons systems in theater, including the Kiowa and Apache 50 cal and rocket pods.

There's more, but why go one...this isn't a job interview. I know a person of my experience can't be made in 5, 10, or even 20 years. :rockin: Yes, I am well aware of worth to this country.

The funny thing is that if I ever wanted to return (back to work) I could go to almost any country in the world because our military weapons are there.
Here's something to wash down that humble pie...

Oh I forgot to ask him about his medals, So tell us Mr Homebrew_99?

This should be good.

Frankfurtvr4 :

I'd agree with you if I was really caring about this argument. It's just something to do until I can get off work and drinks some beer.

Heavily agree with Jay on this one...It's all about passing time at work, what else are we supposed to do while on the clock?

 

[Frankfurtvr4]

Well, you could talk about what is really important here. Bacon. The GF made me some bacon chocolate chip cookies a few weeks back and the were the awesome sauce.

 

[Frankfurtvr4]

I love bacon.

 

[BargainMugs]

And to the younger people...Jagermeister is not a drink to be chugged at the bar. It's an after dinner drink that aids in digesting your meal.

It was Sidney Frank who decided to market Jagermeister to college students in the 80's. It was marketed as a ice cold shot.

 

[MeatyPortion]

I don't like Jager as a shot or as a relaxing drink.

Now, Ouzo and Absinthe on the other hand are great.

[WildGingerBrewing]

Jager is nasty...MORE BACON TALK!

 

[BargainMugs]

Mmmmm bacon turtles.

Would you dip those in baconaise?

 

[Chriso]

I used to hate Jager, I still don't much care for it, but I have discovered that if you ignore all the prattling college kids who are pounding it in the form of Jager Bombs with Red Bull energy drink, that there is another, creative, way that makes it delicious!

Mix it with a good quality Root Beer -- I wish I brewed my own soda to that I could mix it with homebrew root beer, but instead a nice brand from the organic store will work for me -- then layer a shot of Jager on top of it. It replicates that very nice spicy, herbal taste that you used to get in old school Root Beer Barrel candies, before they reformulated them for these-a-days. (Or Horehound drops - my god I bet people don't even know what those are anymore. hb99 knows what i mean though. )

As to bacon -- My wife works at a software company -- she bought them a bottle of Baconnaise that now proudly lives in the community fridge. The programmers dig it, I hear.

 

[MeatyPortion]

You can still get Horehound candies around here, you just have to look a bit harder.

 

[Chriso]

Yeah, I usually can find them by going to either the local (mom and pop, not Home Depot) hardware store, or else the closest Farm Supply store.
Dang they are delicious though.
Like bacon.

 

[Beerrific]

Jagermeister is absolutely great if you have a nagging cough.

 

[Chriso]

I thought that bottle said Ny-Quil on it. I could be wrong.

 

[KevinW]

Heck I still hold a grudge after they German's Bombed Pearl Harbor!

Nice thread, just as soon as you think you have a handle on it, it takes a 360° turn back to bacon

BTW, does anyone know what Jürgen Prochnow and the Chief Engineer were drinking at the bar(based on the glass shape)?

I am pretty sure it was not bacon so try again:cross:
