Stumbled on this today in the tunnel driving in to Boston. Poor quality photo due to me driving and all.

Went and looked at there menu here >> bostonbacontruck.com

And where they are and it turns out that they are camped out in a couple places close to my office 2x a week.

Proof there is a god in my book!!!!

Looks like a well balanced breakfast to me. Then again, SWMBO frequently comes back from a day away from me to find that I've gotten caught up in whatever I'm doing and completely forgotten to eat at all.

Also - That truck doesn't park anywhere convenient to me, but I might have to venture out of Cambridge for lunch if there's delicious delicious bacon involved.

mmmmmmm bacon

Your one of those crispy bacon people aren't you? For me if it crunches, it's burnt.

Bacon is cooked when you bring it home from the store. It is nicer if its warm.

While all bacon is cured (that's what makes it bacon as opposed to being pork belly slices), that doesn't equate to being cooked. Some are, but not all.

I like all forms of bacon, crispy, chewy, bits whatever- but recently I've moved on to ham. There is a whole WORLD of pork delicious hiding in the simple ham. Panchetta, prosciutto, country ham, shank vs butt, different cures, different pigs, the highly elusive, obnoxiously expensive but bafflingly good iberico ham (black footed Spanish pigs, left in the wild to eat acorns, air cured for a stupid amount of time, like.....1500$ a ham9 so stinking rich with hammy goodness.... I mean, you can taste the acorns. The fat makes the ham glow. Its transcendental. So while there's a special place in my heart for bacon, ham is my new love.

I checked their menu, too much bread, mayo and tomato involved.

One think I love about the baseball team in Baltimore is you can get bacon on a stick at the game

This man speaks the truth. The mere existence of the pig is proof that (insert deity of your choice here) loves us and wants us to be happy.

That don't looked cooked in my books. Gotta be done on the BBQ to be done right.

Yeah..flare-ups ARE a bitch.

I just found out today that at GFS, I can buy a 15 pound box of bacon for about $42. I have no idea how good that bacon is, but we're giving the box o' bacon to my dad for Christmas, so I suppose we'll find out.

While I do love me a good country ham(I used to live near a Polish smokehouse that had like 30 kinds of ham, some in house, some imported, in house bacon, if it was meat they either sold it smoked or would do it for a price). I'd like to expand this to ALL pork products. Ham is good but a good Capicola (low moisture and spicy) is where it's really at. I could eat that E36 M3 till my heart stops.

My wife has an allergic reaction to pork. A bad one. So she has no use for bacon.

I'm eating bacon live. Like, right now.

Not only was it excellent standing on its own, it also made way for the foundation of some gravy, which I generously ladled on top of some from-scratch biscuits.

Even later in life, it will probably be the JB Weld to my bloodstream.
