1000g milk
1000g cream
750g egg yolks
625g sugar
6 strips of cooked bacon

Method of procedure:
-Thoroughly cook bacon, keep warm.
-Bring milk and cream to a boil.
-Add bacon to the hot dairy.
-Cover and infuse for 4 hours.
-Strain out bacon.
-Bring baconed dairy back to a boil.
-Whisk yolk and sugar together.
-Temper hot dairy into yolks mixture.
-Pour back into the dairy.
-Cook over low heat, stirring with a wooden spoon till it reaches
nappe (coats the spoon).
-Cool over an ice bath.
-Spin in an ice cream machine.
 
How much bacon do you actually get? $30 a month seems like a good price for bacon to me. I spend about double that much now.

That's stupid.

What the mother fark are you talking about, of course you get bacon. Maybe, you need some bacon to wake you up this morning.
 
I would suggest they skip the toy pig, the T-shirt and the ballpoint pen and replace that with more bacon!

I was thinking the same thing... I checked the site but I don't see how much bacon you get. If it's a pound or more, I'd seriously consider it!

 
On the site it says "one package each month", and the standard package is 16oz. That's a poor bacon/$ ratio.

Edit:
the $375/year one is two packages.

All of the "*** of the month clubs" are like that. That value proposition is in the quality, rarity and variety. If you want LB's/$ spent go buy store brand bacon on sale at your local supermarket...

That's what I do. I couldn't imagine spending $30/month on bacon. I spend $6, tops.

...or buy the individual packages for $10+shipping each on their site.

1 good package of bacon costs that much. you're either clearly buying inferior bacon (corn king sucks) or you're not getting enough bacon.

I usually go with Tyson or Hormel.
