"Some of you with age will remember this type bacon from those camps that our folks used to send us to for the summer. It is not the typical flat served bacon and is the only way to cook bacon for a crowd. Even though this is called kettle bacon it can be cooked in any large cooking vessel such as a dutchoven, large kettle or large skillet with deep sides. This is how I used to make it when I cooked at a camp in Charles County, Md. Cooking times are an estimate, cook until done to your liking. Note I cook this in a large cast iron dutchoven."
