Notes about this book

  • MarciK on June 17, 2019

    If you love bacon and looking for ideas to use it, want to make your own bacon, or wondering what to do with your saved bacon grease, this is the book for you. It has everything in here, from confit, to bacon stock, to sausages, entrees to desserts, sauces and spices rubs. There are 200 recipes with tips and places to source high quality bacon. I don’t eat too much bacon for health reasons and will have to scale down many of the recipes, but this is a well done cookbook with tantalizing photography. An invaluable addition to a collection, I’m glad I bought it.

Publishers Text

From the founder of a bacon-themed restaurant, more than 200 recipes using bacon, the unexpected workhorse of savory ingredients.

Bacon is Peter Sherman’s North Star. In 2014, he opened BarBacon, a bacon-themed gastropub in New York City, to immediate critical and financial success, and he has become the go-to bacon guru for the world. Sherman has a nearly religious devotion to bacon, and in his tome, The Bacon Bible, he shares more than 200 recipes that show you how to incorporate bacon into nearly any meal you can imagine.

There are the classics, like BLTs, wedge salads, and mac and cheese, but the book really encourages you to cook with bacon in unexpected ways with recipes like Bacon Ramen, Chipotle Bacon Tacos, and Bacon Bourbon Oatmeal Pancakes. Peter also teaches you the basics, like how to cure simple bacon from scratch. He has a mad-scientist approach to bacon and is a firm believer that it should be a part of every meal. With this cookbook, you’ll never think of bacon the same way.
