The Best Bacon in America
One of the most difficult parts of being America’sĀ Bacon CriticĀ is that I haven’t been able to lovingly catalogue every single bacon that I’ve tasted. My notes are legion and mostly scribbled on paper smeared with pork fat as well as ink. When you’re on the hunt for theĀ best baconĀ in the country, you sample a shitload of bacon. And I ate some fantasticĀ baconĀ that, while worthy in many ways, fell slightly short in one category or another. Or in some casesĀ reallyĀ short (yes, there is bad bacon out there, I’m sad to admit). So, here, finally, is your answer. Your verdict. I have decided what I feel is theĀ best bacon in the United States.Ā But! There are some otherĀ baconsĀ that bear mentioning, if only to show you that I haven’t been slacking off in my pursuit of smoked-pork sublimity. Here, then, before we get to the best of the best, are what I like to refer to as the Bacon Superlatives. It’s like your high school yearbook: best-dressed; wittiest; most handsome; most ambitious, etc., but for theĀ best bacons. If you're curious, I was voted “most likely to wind up writing commercial jingles with Jesse fromĀ Full House” (true story). So here are ten bacons that, while not reaching the top tier, still deserve a tip of the cap for one of their notable qualities. After those, I'll get to what you came here for: theĀ best bacon in America. —Scott Gold, Extra Crispy
