\u00a0<\/p>\n

So for my first entry of the new year I want to talk about my experience with the wonderous bacon explosion, found here<\/a>. When I first looked at this, thanks to one of my former coworkers, all I thought was \u201comfg arterial destruction!\u201d but then today six months later I was in the mood for one.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately I happen to be on of those few people blessed with a pork allergy so I had to shake things up a little. On top of that I am also one of those people who do not like BBQ sauce so I had to change it up a bit more! And since I learned to cook from my Jamaican mother I just HAVE to add Walkerswood Jerk Seasoning to EVERYTHING I cook PERIOD. So my version of this explosion of bacon is a little odd. Also I am not big on measurements (blame my mother).\u00a0But anyways!\u00a0lets get down to it shall we?<\/p>\n

As mentioned earlier I am allergic to pork so I used turkey products for this Bacon Explosion so here is my first step the TURKEY bacon weave!<\/p>\n

\"IMG_8365\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next I\u00a0created my own brand of Jamaicanified Sausage meat. in order to do this I used:<\/p>\n

3\/4ths pound of ground turkey
\n1\/2 tablespoon of Walkerswood Jerk Seasoning
\nSome Powdered Garlic
\nSome Ground Black Pepper
\nSome Paprika
\nSome Basil
\nhalf a teaspoon of salt (I am not big on salt and half a teaspoon was a bit much)
\nVERY little Cumin<\/p>\n

then I stirred it up and there you have it<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"IMG_8367\"<\/a>\u00a0 \"IMG_8369\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next fried some turkey bacon. In hindsight I should have fried more AND I should not have cut up the turkey bacon before I sliced it. Oh well live and learn<\/p>\n

After the frying came time for my wonderful BBQ rub substitute. here it is<\/p>\n

1\/2 teaspoon Walkerswood Jerk Seasoning
\nSome Garlic Powder
\nSome sweet red wine (I used Imperial Red from San Antonio Winery)
\nSome Paprika
\nSome Basil
\nSome Ground Black Pepper
\nAnd about 1 tablespoon of Soy Sauce<\/p>\n

I then\u00a0 spread this stuff out over my bacon weave mmm mmm good!<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"IMG_8372\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next I spread out my home made turkey Sausage meat over the turkey Bacon Weave<\/p>\n

\"IMG_8373\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Then put my fried\u00a0 bacon over it. Hmm, I REALLY should have fried more.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"IMG_8375\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Then Rolled it up!<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"IMG_8377\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Then rolled up the turkey bacon weave!<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"IMG_8380\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And wrapped it in Aluminum Foil. I wrapped it in Aluminum foil out of habit. I don\u2019t think it is necessary or even advised but I did it.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_8381\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Next I Shoved it in the oven at 225 degrees. After about 1.5 hours I took it out of the aluminum foil and let it brown for a while (30 minutes or so).<\/p>\n

\"IMG_8386\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since I could not figure out what to put on the outside here is the finished product!<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \"IMG_8390\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"IMG_8391\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here is the mess!<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"IMG_8393\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And here is the first cut.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"IMG_8397\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I really liked it haha but try it at your own risk! I will not be responsible for anyone getting high blood pressure or anything like that!<\/p>\n

This is for all those people who can’t eat pork for whatever reason but still want to get a taste of the bacon explosion. If you make it enjoy!<\/p>\n

Peace!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
