Bacon Popcorn

Today I used the bacon drippings from yesterday’s kale carbonara in the bottom of my Whirley-Pop pot when I popped my popcorn. That is all.

Bacon Popcorn?! Evil! I could see doing a batch of kettle corn to go with it & get a salty/sweet combo going.

Sounds Yummy. I have a question about the Whirley-Pop – have you ever used one on a ceramic top stove? My stove manual said to stay away from light-grade aluminum and the Whirley-Pop feels light.

I also want to hear about the popper on the ceramic stove!!

A Whirley-Pop definitely is light.. I’m not sure how it would work on a ceramic stove, but my gut feeling is that it wouldn’t be ideal. It’s worth a try, but is likely best on electric or gas stovetops.

Uh-oh. And just when I was wondering how to improve on the batch I made yesterday….

This sounds awesome! I’ve been planning bacon themed food for my Super Bowl party. I will have to add this to the menu!

*There are some interesting points in time in this article but I don’t
know if I see all of them center to heart. There is some validity but
I will take hold opinion until I look into it further. Good article ,
thanks and we want more! Added to FeedBurner as well

For the ceramic top problem, If you put 1/3 C of kernels in a covered but vented bowl (4 quart works well), in the microwave, you can use whatever oils of flavorings you wish.
