It's a Family Tradition

We all have our traditions that may seem different to others or maybe something noones ever heard of. Some traditions bring people and family closer together. And those are the traditions that matter the most.


One of my families traditions is the Bacon roast. For this you only need a few things:

Bread (preferable homemade but store bought works fine too)
Radishes
Onions
salt
pepper
paprika
Big slabs of bacon (of course)
And most importantly...... FAMILY!

This was our Adventure:

You get the bread and cut it into thick pieces

Then you lay them out on some cooking sheets or where ever you prefer

My oldest and I cut up the radishes and onions

My middle child and my dad places some onion and radish on each piece of bread

Still placing the stuff on the bread

Then apply alittle salt

Then a little pepper

Finally add Paprika....we use sweet paprika 

Apply it generously

You repeat this on as many trays as desired

Now its time for the bacon. You get the slab and cut it to smaller workable pieces

Cut the edges a little to allow for the cooking process to work

Prepare your cooking area so you have easy access to the fire and to the bread for applying the bacon

After you cook the bacon for a little bit then you see the fat starting to drip off... or as I call it "Bacon juice". Immediately press the bacon to the bread to allow for the bread so soak up the juices

And there you have it. Bacon bread. The only thing needed is the most important ingredient

FAMILY!... everything is better with family

And then where there is fire... there is always room for Smores. 

So that is one of my families traditions. To some it may seem weird or maybe the concept of Bacon bread baffles you. But its more about getting the family together and having fun. If you were looking for something new to do with your family then why not light  up that fire and make yourself some bacon bread. Its never too late to start a new family tradition for your family
