A Valuable Lesson In The Power of Editing Video and Bacon. Last week I made a Bill-E's and Conecuh Bacon review show for Old Shell Market and posted an 11 minute version on youtube. No matter how I tried, I just could not get the length of the video below 5 minutes. Well, after some needed time away from the creation of this project, I bit the bullet and deleted all the extra parts that I had previously thought that I just had to to keep. Like making good bacon, I chose the proper cuts, trimmed the extra fat and got straight to the good portions. Now this video is not near as good as Bill-E's Bacon, but it's a whole lot better than it was last week. Except for that damn audio issue. If I pla
Mobile, Alabama and iHeart Media radio legend and "bacon expert" Uncle Henry helps me review Bill-E's Small Batch Bacon vs. Conecuh Bacon for the Old Shell Market. While I have to disclose this is sponsored content, the reactions and opinions are genuine and truly delicious. Spoiler: Bill-E ain't lying when he says "singing to your cured pork" is the secret to truly great bacon. How we judged: 1. Packaging 2. Raw Eye And Smell Test 3. Taste 4. Grease Quality I want to give Uncle Henry a big bacon greasy high five for his help on this. He was a gracious and patient media pro during every awkward moment of this video taping. You are a prince Uncle Henry. Thanks Old Shell Market for the chance
