coastcityo 324 Posted January 11, 2015 I've been holding my tongue as long as possible, especially knowing that I will face some backlash, but I prefer a good breakfast sausage over bacon in any breakfast list I build. Obviously, I'm talking an eat casual list, as the meta totally favors bacon at this point, but I'm using sausage in every casual breakfast I eat at home.

You have the right to make bad decisions just like everyone else. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had myself some Lorne square sausage for breakfast at the weekend. On toast. With a couple of fried eggs and some baked beans. I felt like a traitor.

All Shields Forward 1,917 Posted March 17, 2015 I really think prosciutto will be the next meta. It's a more refined bacon, and goes will with the honey melon and goat cheese upgrades. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GreyHart 128 Posted March 18, 2015 Goat cheese is so overused. I mean it's on every salad and sandwich build you see lately. Everyone who's trying to be "meta-hip" is using it. I personally like a good Havarti with dill. I've even been known to throw caution and common sense out the window and take a horseradish cheddar much to my opponents confusion.

FTS Gecko 24,135 Posted March 18, 2015 Bacon, Brie and Cranberry. Classic three ingredient build with excellent synergy. The only problem is when the bacon gets finished off early... Also, I'm finding pancetta to be much more versatile than proscuttio. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
All Shields Forward 1,917 Posted March 18, 2015 Goat cheese has a long and proud meta from around the world! It's not its fault people keep putting it in net lists. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreyHart 128 Posted March 18, 2015 That's the problem, it was netlisted and now EVERYONE has to have it. Just like with the Fat Ham Sandwich, the Shawarma along with the mini-Shawarma, and the Fanta. Now those are the only lists you see anymore. I really hate netlisting. It should be banned. I mean it was literally the next day after the Big Corn Dog appeared that everyone was trying it. Whatever happened to the Dagwood? Where you just take whatever's in the fridge and put it on two pieces of bread. Now THAT was good! And never the same way twice! 1 All Shields Forward reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Katman 55 Posted March 18, 2015 I just finished supper, mashed potatoes chicken bar b q sauce broccoli with cheese and topped with 1 slice of bacon just for flavoring . . . . on a Samich! Only thing I forgot was the pizza and that's cause the grandbaby got to it before me. 1 Robin Graves reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GreyHart 128 Posted March 19, 2015 Tell me abot it! I still run the Reuben. And that lists gets you some weird looks. Are you running a classic Rueben with corned beef, are you substituting pastrami, or using a combination of both? Me I prefer the classic, but them I'm an old fogie and set in my ways.

FTS Gecko 24,135 Posted March 19, 2015 Potato and chorizo tacos. Freshly made coriander, tomato and lime salsa. Dat chilli sawce. Ladies and gentlemen, I have discovered the new OP dinnertime combo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InstantAequitas 678 Posted March 19, 2015 It was nice to see a themed lunch the other day (the 17th) everyone ran Corned Beef and Cabbage, Potatoes and Green Beer. It was really nice to not see Bacon for a whole day as it always gets eaten. It's even starting to become a staple in lists that feature Salads!

GreyHart 128 Posted March 20, 2015 It was nice wasn't it? The nice thing about it is afterward we get a lot of lists with corned beef hash. (suggested by my friend Ghostrider) Hmmm, true. Bacon is cropping up in the most curious places. My girlfriend even made a chocolate (dark) and pecan covered bacon list the other day. Going back to the OP question, maybe it's not "Is bacon becoming overpowered?", but instead "Is bacon becoming overplayed?" A heretical question for some I know, but it's a hard question that needs to be asked. I mean its become so prevalent on the table lately its almost ridiculously overwhelming in its presence. I remember when all you saw it in was Eggs & Bacon, or in a BLT. Nowadays we even have "Bacon in a can" (I'm serious, look up "Tactical Bacon" for a laugh). When did bacon go from a pleasant addition to a must have? And why? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately my FLSS only offers pastrami. I'd love to use corned beef if I could find it. Think B&N would carry it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
