Dunno, what recipe are you using? Damsel's recipe doesn't call for a ham
bone:

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 pound dried navy beans -- (2 cups)
1/4 pound bacon slices
1 medium onion -- finely diced
2 medium carrots -- finely diced
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
2 medium bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
8 cups water
few drops liquid smoke flavoring

Sort and wash beans, and soak overnight in 6 cups lukewarm water. Drain
thoroughly.

Cut bacon slices at 1/2-inch intervals. Fry bacon pieces until crisp.
Remove from pan and set aside. Saute onion in bacon grease until
translucent.

In a large saucepan or dutch oven, combine all ingredients except liquid
smoke. Heat to boiling, then lower heat and simmer for 1 1/2 to 2
hours, or until beans are tender. Add liquid smoke to taste.

Campbell's Bean and Bacon Soup

Posted by warden2three at recipegoldmine.com

2 cups navy beans
6 bacon slices, fried crisp and minced
3 small to medium carrots, minced
3 medium celery stalks, minced
1 onion, minced

2 to 4 cloves garlic, minced
1 (4 ounce) can tomato paste
Dash of dried red pepper flakes
6 to 8 cups water (substituting 1 or 2 cups of ham
stock for 1 or 2 cups of water gives this

Soak beans overnight and discard water. Place all ingredients except
wine vinegar, salt and pepper in a large kettle. Simmer until beans are
tender (about 3 hours).

Okay... but it does suggest adding some ham stock to the water, doesn't say
it's required!

What's your point? It lists ham stock as an optional ingredient. Did
you "take note" of the six slices of bacon?

It has carrots too, are you going to insist that it's a carrot soup?

isn't the term 'bacon' often used for any cuts of cured pork? Besides,
there's 'bacon' there in your recipe anyway ',;~}~

Is a cured ham "bacon"? Are cured spareribs "bacon"? No not at all.
Bacon is bacon.

Salted and (or) smoked meat from the back and sides of a pig. American
bacon (or "streaky bacon" as it's known in Britian) is a very fatty
slab taken from the underside of a pig. The sliced bacon found in
grocery stores is usually cured and smoked.

Canadian bacon, taken from the loin or back of the pig, is closer to
ham in taste and texture.

No. In the US, bacon means bacon. Other cuts are referred to individually;
e.g., ham (assumed cured/smoked, otherwise "fresh ham"), smoked pork chops,
smoked hocks, etc. One might, in fact, include bacon and ham in the same
recipe.

Except for the cornmeal, what is the difference between Canadian bacon and
peanmeal bacon? Canadian bacon I can usually take or leave. I would
practically kill for peameal bacon.

http://www.alliedkenco.com/data/recipes/peameal.htm

Peameal Bacon is similar to Canadian Bacon. It is cured but not smoked.
Peameal Bacon is made from pork loins weighing 12-14 Lb. They are
trimmed of all the fat and the bones are removed. The term peameal
comes from the ground yellow peas with which the bacon was originally
coated. This ensured better curing and shelf life and avoided bacterial
problems. Over the years this tradition was changed to cornmeal, due to
the availability of corn.

You may buy boneless loins from your butcher shop, which are about 8
Lb. or so. Some supermarkets sell 4 Lb. loins that are half loins.
These loins are sometimes pumped with marinades, water or other
liquids. They should not be used in the recipes listed below, as the
liquid level present in them will affect the curing process. Be sure to
ask for a loin that has not been pumped.

The meat is then cured in a brine solution or by dry rub. After curing
the loins are coated with yellow cornmeal, sliced and fried.

Damn...I just threw a lb of peameal bacon out due to freezer burn.

Any Canadian Bacon (Back Bacon) I've seen has a small piece of fat
along one edge. Pea meal bacon doesn't. Pea meal bacon comes
unsliced...All the back bacon I've seen was sliced.

The pea meal is an indicator the size of the ground corn meal
used (Fine, Pea meal, coarse etc.)...You musta read a American
Reference...Not a Canadian reference one.

In Canada, Peameal bacon usually is not smoked, just pickled. And Canadian
Bacon is available by the piece to
slice yourself. That's the way I buy it because it's cheaper and usually
better quality.

Myself, I prefer Canadian bacon over peameal. I prefer a smoked product.

You must be typing in Canadian English because what you wrote makes not
a whit of sense to this American English speaker... do all Canadians
use English at the 3 year old dyslexic asshole level or just you?

Thank you! Years ago we used to spend a week each summer in Niagara-on-
the-Lake, staying at the venerable Oban Inn before it was razed by fire,
then after that at the Prince of Wales Hotel. Both hotel restaurants
served the best peameal bacon I've ever eaten. We would buy several pounds
of peameal bacon at a local market to take back to Ohio.

Oh Wayne,

I just went to Niagara-on-the-Lake for the first time last summer! Thanks
for the memory! What a gem of a place. And, I remember seeing the Prince
of Wales Hotel. It was a watermelon festival when I was there. Watermelon
daiquiris, yum.

Isn't Niagara-on-the-Lake a wonderful place? Much of it is like a step
back in time. There are some great shops there, too. There was one we
used to frequent and buy homemade jams and marmalades. The old
pharmacy/chemist shop sold some wonderful old toiletry products. I used to
by "Florida Water" there.

Watermelon daiquiris sound postively delicious!

Doubt you could do that now. I remember the Oban Inn. Mainly cause that's
the name of the place my Grandparents came from. Oban, Scotland.

It's nice there, but we don't go any longer because it's such a tourist
trap. Everything's expensive and parking's the pitts.

We went there a Sept 2001 after going to Toronto & Niagara Falls (Canadian
side, mostly). After reading all the hype about it, we almost didn't go,
but we loved it even though it was really crowded. We started driving east
along the lake, but somehow we got lost and went south and could never pick
it up the lake road again, we were so disappointed. But what we did travel,
it was one peaceful ride along the lake! I'd like to go back someday.

I suspect it's much more crowded these days than it was back when we spent
our weeks there. That drive along the lake is wonderful and, as you said,
very peaceful. Living in AZ now, I don't know if we'll ever make it back
there, but I sure would love to.

Yes, I suspect they're much more strict at the border these days.

Unfortunately, when I was MUCH younger, I only went one place. Jamaica. It
was my divorce present. After that, single parent, 3 jobs, 2 kids,
mortgage, utilities. No money.

Then I met my husband when I was 40 and the kids were teens. Marriage, kids
grew up, mortgage, 2nd mortgage, motorhome, sell house, retire, mobile home,
travel. A little late, but I'll enjoy it!

I was very lucky to be able to travel extensively and at length from around
age 26 until I was about 55. At that point we were hit with some major
financial reverses and are slowly recovering. Both our incomes are
seriously less than what they once were. Hopefully we'll manage to do some
traveling in the future.

Hey, we do what we can. Three years ago we lost our house and both went
through bankruptcies. It's been a hard climb back, and we've been renting
a house since then, but will finally be moving into our own home in late
September or early October.

I'm so sorry to hear about your plight! And happy to hear you're climbing
out
of the hole, or whole, whichever you wish to call it.

I can't even imagine what it would be like.

Oh, Wayne, I'm sure this is one of life's events that is at the top of the
"stress list." In 3 years, you've kept a happy attitude that has pulled you
forward. To move into your new home again must be like heaven has 'struck.'

Nope. We can buy pea meal bacon sliced. As to the difference, pea meal
bacon has a different flavour and texture than Canadian bacon. IMO,
Canadian bacon is very similar to thinly sliced ham. Pea meal bacon is
more like a treat from the Gods

K, Wayne. As you read, I was a single parent, so I learned early how to
pinch pennies and being a Scot really helped. But we never went
hungry and always had a roof over our head (owned) because I was always
taught that renting was like throwing money down the loo.

That's not very nice FYI, if you want to research Canadian goodies,
try using Canadian spelling. It is *favourite* not favorite; *colour*
not color, etc. Our spelling is very much British because of our
heritage. Many of us have a strong French and native heritage as well
so it does help your research if you understand our heritage. FWIW,
American English certainly is not Canadian English. It doesn't help
being ignorant of these differences. It only creates hard feelings when
there is no need. Peace

<shrug> We make an annual trip to the region. There are lots of great
restaurants and you can avoid the touristy type things. We always have
a grand time. The ice wine from that region is very good!

You're right on all counts, Helen. However, after a foreclosure it's
generally a two year wait before one can get financing again. Luckily,
we've never gone hungry and have always had a nice place to live, although
rented.

It's all a matter of taste. But peameal isn't smoked and you can have
Canadian as thick as you want it. Just buy it by the piece instead of
slices.
