The Irish burger thread that morfed into a dog / bacon thread got me thinking about an Aldeer subject that's been discussed before but can be again. What's the best bacon ?
I throw my pick into the mix... SW of Knoxville there is a store called Benton's Smokey Mountain Country Hams. They do legit Smokehouse bacon and it is FINE. Just swing in on your way back from the mountains and if you know, you know. Be warned though, your ride will smell like a Smokehouse by the time you get home.
