Is that 'Back Bacon' y'all refer to when talking about Canadian Bacon?

.......

I do t really know what it is or why it’s called “Canadian.�

I think it’s made up. I think it’s more like a thinly sliced ham of some sort that’s been cut in a circle.

No idea what the thrill is.

It fits an English Muffin perfectly, and is therefore very suitable for 'Eggs Benedict'.

........

Maybe it’s a made up term like “rich Corinthian leather�

You know, the stuff they use to make apolstry for twin Volvo powered yachts.

And cheesy Mopars.

Like Tim says it is a thin slice of perfectly round ham. I suspect it
was really invented by sandwich makers and they just wanted a unique
name for ham. It is more heavily smoked than most ham tho.



Add a little paprika and chili pepper and you almost have pepperoni.

I really prefer ham sliced very thin like you get in a deli. Chunks of
ham seem like too much of a good thing. I do dice it in an omelette
tho but that is still a small dice.



As do I. Sliced very thin with low fat cheese on pita bread with
some honey mustard. Lunch for me.


I am even getting to the point that I prefer a steak sandwich more
than the steak, again sliced very thin.

There's nothing better than a good Philly cheese steak sandwich !


Best cheese steak sandwich I ever had was made from the doggy bag
leftovers after stopping at Coinjock Marina Restaurant on the ICW.

We were there just two or three weeks ago. I think the quality of
their prime rib dinner has slipped just a little but it's still a darn
good meal and served with a lot of southern hospitality.


My brother and I both ordered the Fred Flintstone sized prime rib.
Had enough leftovers for sandwiches on the boat for the next 3 days.


Sounds like the one at the Bubble Room on Captiva. That baby is 20-24
oz. I eat a lot and I took a big chunk home.



The big prime rib at Coinjock is advertised as 32 oz.

Good Lord!
These days a good 8 oz steak usually satisfies me if I have a baked potato and roll accompanying it. Oh yeah...we can't forget a nice cold 1w oz light beer.
If I'm hungry I might move up to the 12 oz steak.

... or an Egg McMuffin ;-)
That is why I say it was invented for a sandwich


I have never been able to fry the stuff so it is not turned in to leather.

A 12 oz steak and a then worry about the beer being lite?

My wife and I usually will split an eight ounce steak. One of the
restaurants we frequent serves up what it calls a tomahawk steak and if
memory serves, the menu describes it as a 30-36 ounce steak. I've seen a
couple of patrons order one at nearby tables...I can only guess that it
is either shared or a huge chunk of meat is taken home for Fideaux.

You and my wife would get along well. She likes everything cut up small. I like it big enough to
know what I'm biting in to.

Yikes. I guess they assume you are splitting it or taking a bunch
home.

At home I cook a "bone in" rib eye about a pound but I always cut out
the "eye" for my sandwich the next day. If you get a steak on the
"butt end" (shorter rib) the eye isn't that big and you get more cap.

What is '1w oz' light beer?
