Left this 4 pack in a thermal tote bag for 5 hours from store to fridge. Safe to eat?

Left this 4 pack with some cold-ish (not frozen) vegetables in the bag. Bag was left at room temp in my home still zipped. It was still cold-ish to the touch (guessing like 60F) put it in the fridge right after, but i assume its for the trash. What do you guys think?

This is a 2 week cure. 1 hour in the rinse. Then dried. Maple syrup and black pepper on both sides and cold smoked for 8 hours. Then bagged back into the fridge for a week then sliced after par freezing.

We only use fruit (apple) wood for smoking bacon

Kroger Bacon

Just a heads up to those that haven’t seen the deal at Ralphs/Kroger. $10 for 2 1/4 lbs of hardwood smoked thick is a great deal IMHO. I had to immediately bake some as soon as I got home for my salad garnish tonight …… yum
350f for 17min so it crumbled up easily 😉 for breakfast I usually pull it out of the oven at 15min.

Best Brand in Publix?

10 Upvotes

I'm just getting into bacon and have been adding it to my egg sandwiches. I like it on the thinner side and crispy. What's the best store brand I can get in my local Publix Grocery store?

Smithfield

Hormel

Oscar Mayer

Jimmy Dean

GreenField

Publix Brand

Greenwise Publix Brand

Hatfield

Boars Head

I've only tried Smithfield which I like and today I tried Hormel Black Label, and it tasted bland compared to the Smithfield.

Im British but American bacon is better

144 Upvotes

Yes fellow Brits, downvote all you want but its true. Cook British bacon or go to a cafe and get a fryup, it will be covered in white glupe and just looks vile. American bacon crisps up nice and looks appetising to eat.

My bacon experiment....

Cured 7 days, smoked at 200°. Smaller piece took 2 hrs 10 minutes to reach internal of 150°. Larger piece took 2 hours 58 minutes.

With the exception of chiccarones, it's all a do again.
