FOR ROASTS, CHOPS and TENDERLOINS

Cook to 145 F with 3 minute rest

Ingredients

1/4 pound bacon, raw, roughly chopped
2 cups half & half
2 cups milk
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup brown sugar, light, packed

Cooking Directions


In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine bacon, half and half, milk, corn syrup, and sugar and bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Reduce to maintain a gentle simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, cover, and set aside to steep until a deep bacon flavor develops, 10 to 20 minutes. Strain through a medium-mesh strainer and set aside to cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled.

Yield: About 5 cups (serving size 1/2 cup)

Serving Suggestions

You can use whipping cream instead of the half and half for an even richer ice cream. If you like, sprinkle chopped, crisped bacon bits on top before serving.   Recipe courtesy of Top Chef All-Stars Winner Richard Blais.

About the Cut: Bacon

The cut used to make bacon comes from the side - or belly - of the pig. When it is cured and smoked, it becomes bacon. An abundance of fat gives bacon its sweet flavor and tender crispiness.

Butcher's Tips

Bacon doesn’t just come from one place on a pig. In fact, English, American and Italian bacon comes from the belly of the pig while Irish and Canadian bacon comes from the back.
