Ultimate Meat Lovers Bacon Taco's
- 12 slice thin cut bacon
- 4 large eggs
- 4 slice thin cut ham
- 3 tbsp milk
- 1 tbsp bacon grease
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 3 dash ground black pepper
- 1 anything else u would like to put in your scrambled eggs... chorizo, sausage, onions, green peppers, mushrooms, hot sauce etc..
- to pan fry: large skillet lightly greased..
- to oven cook.. preheat oven to 400F
- on a large work surface.. covered in parchment paper.. lay 3 slices bacon side by side so they are just touching each other.
- take one slice of bacon and weave it through the other 3 slices up down up.
- take another slice and weave it so its touching but not overlapping last weave and this time its down up down.
- take another slice and repeat what u did in step 4.
- trim off some excess bacon ( save for later use!)
- to oven cook: place parchment with weave in a cookie sheet and bake about 35-40 minutes or until nice and crispy!
- flipping halfway through.
- I do not like this method as the edges tend to burn before the middle is done.
- to pan cook.. gently flip the weave into a hot skillet( u may have to fix or adjust bacon weave) and fry until the first side is crispy.
- using a large spatula gently and carefully flip it over to crisp up 2nd side.
- total about 10 minutes per side.
- depending on how high of heat.
- I use medium high.
- when done.. transfer bacon to a paper towel to drain.
- while bacon is still hot fold it in half resting it on something to keep the mouth of the taco open so u can fill it later.
- I used an oval 1/3c.
- measuring cup.
- u can use a handle of a large spoon or whatever.
- repeat with rest of bacon.
- you will end up with 2 bacon taco shells!
- fry up bacon u trimmed off the excess and set aside on a paper towel to drain.
- if using green pepper, onion etc.
- using same pan u fried bacon in drain out bacon grease and reserve for later.
- sautee veggies in bacon grease until tender and set aside.
- next.. chop or shredd your ham.
- in a bowl wisk together milk, eggs, ham, pepper and any veggies u sssauted and leftover bacon trimmings u cooked up earlier.
- heat same skillet u did veggies in.. add a tbl.
- of bacon grease and pour egg mix in.
- keep stirring and cook until scrambled eggs form and eggs are cooked through.
- grab ur bacon taco and fill it with eggs and sprinkle with desired amount of cheese.
- serve and enjoy!
