Bacon Wrapped Food Items

[flyinglentris]

What food items have you ever cooked, wrapped in bacon? I have a preference for wrapping skewered shrimp or prawns in bacon, for one.

If I've ever used bacon to wrap something, I don't remember. Prosciutto I've used in the past though.

Yes, I would qualify prosciutto here as well.

Pigs in blankets of course! Which in the UK means little sausages wrapped in bacon. I've also used bacon as the outer wrap of a terrine (that is very traditional).

Ok. Yeah, I've used prosciutto over the years for all sorts of duty. Wrapping other protein like small birds or breast to fish fillets and of course melon. Dates filled with cheese then wrapped in prosciutto. Also used as a liner and filled with various grains, onions, mushrooms, cheese then broiled, that kind of thing.

I love bacon wrapped scallops. Haven't made them for years. I did bone in skin on chicken breast wrapped in bacon sous vide and it was excellent. I plan to see if I can make supermarket turkey breast edible this way in the near future.

I have wrapped figs in prosciutto - just lovely!!

That's devils on horseback! Delicious. Have you ever made angels on horseback?

I don't like bacon but its fat can add an interesting taste to foods, and if I'm cooking for someone who likes bacon, I can use it. I've cooked meatloaf, pork loin and chicken breasts wrapped in bacon and baked in the oven.

I’ve wrapped it around prunes and around hot dogs, draped it over chicken, turkey, and meatloaf, and I’ve probably used it in other places I’m forgetting.

Not to be confused with hot dogs!

Well, wrapping slipper bacon around prunes can be very frustrating, though I’d never hit a dog over it!

Used to wrap pork loin in bacon and I can't figure out why I do not still do it.
