Hi Mountain Bacon Seasoning Making Bacon Better

Can bacon be improved? Are we not happy with the salty , smokey flavor? Surprisingly it seems we're not. That's where Hi Mountain Seasonings comes in with their latest creation  - flavor sprinkles for those strips in three exciting flavors.

Hi Mountain Seasonings is devoted to improving meat. They're more known for beef jerkies - which are amazing  - and marinades. Carnivores can also buy  the company's curing and smoking equipment such as aromatic cans to have highly flavored cuts. They came out with burger seasonings and it made sense that they should create one for bacon.I decided to try it, to amp up the flavor  of vegan soy bacon.
As you can see vegan bacon does leave a lot to be desired. The plus side is that's it not super soaked in its' own fat and  it is healthy for you. There are three flavors are Black Pepper & Brown Sugar, Sticky Bun and Pineapple Sriracha.
It's just liberally sprinkling on the flavorings and microwaving for two minutes.
The Sticky Bun flavor was sweet and full of vanilla. I can see it topping a French toast strata. As for the brown sugar and pepper, it would be great if you were serving pancakes or griddle cakes, with the strips on top. As for the pineapple blended with sriracha , think appetizers where the flavored bacon is wrapped around pineapple or mango chunks.If you're into snacking a bowl of bacon - as decadent as that sounds - then sprinkle the flavorings over it - or mix it with popcorn - for real movie time treat.

Can bacon be improved? Yes!Dash some Hi Mountain Bacon Seasonings on it for a new spin on a classic favorite.

Sticky Buns America's Favorite Breakfast

There's nothing like starting off the morning with a sticky bun. This bad for you all American pastry has been around for a long time. It has got enough sugar to keep you going throughout the day. This fun food is also a good foil to your mornings hot cup of strong java.

Sticky buns are Germanic in origin , probably coming over with the Pennsylvania Dutch. They were called shcreken. The Swedes also make a variation of this which grew into the ever popular cinnamon bun.Any kind of sweet bun and still are popular with Philadelphians and South Jerseyites.

Basically a sticky bun is no more than a form of yeast bread that is rolled flat. On top of this goes melted butter, cinnamon and raisins It is then rolled back up much in the fashion of a jelly roll cut into buns and then backed. Some kind of icing is then slathered on it , whether it just be a confectioner's glaze or cream cheese icing.

If you;re vacationing in South Jersey this summer head to any bakery and pick up one. Sticky buns are the best, most decadent way to start a day.
