luvsdawgs Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 Morning! I have looked for Canadian Bacon in a few places to no avail. I know it must be available somewhere, does anyone know where? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComputerGuy Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 It is not available here, unfortunately. CostCo's looks like it, but it is not maple-smoked, and it is mushy-fleshy. Still, it cooks up more like normal bacon than what we get at the local butcheries. I bought a jar of McCormick's Smoked Maple seasoning at CostCo, and I sprinkle that on the bacon, which helps a bit. But I should also ask, when you say Canadian Bacon, are you talking about what Canadians call bacon, or are you talking about what American's call Canadian Bacon, which is actually peameal bacon, and looks more like slices of ham. In which case, I have seen it here rarely at SuperLake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILLIN Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 I know I draw heat for this, but back bacon, or Irish bacon is incredibly easy and inexpensive to make. Soak it four days in salt water brine, air dry it with a fan, and then hot smoke it for a couple hours. Lean, tender, but does contain nitrites/nitrates. This recipe is overly complicated, but you will need pink salt. http://www.nwedible.com/how-to-make-canadian-bacon-at-home/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garth Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 I buy lomo ahumado at Tony's butcher shop. It is smoked back bacon, Mexican style, but very similar to Canadian back bacon, that we get in Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 Gee, I've had lots of that, and I don't find it similar. Do you not find it is just an overcooked dried-out chop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
