  1. “What was the last thing you burned?”

    Myself. On a semi-regular basis.

    Give those carcinogens. Honestly, if you crushed a few bits of that on some mac and cheese hmmm

    break out the mortar and pestle, grind it into a powder and sprinkle it into a seafood chowder or bisque

  4. rice. i usually cook it perfectly, but apparently depression + rice don’t mix.

    lately i burn it constantly or overcook it to mush, leading to increased congee consumption

    This is how I like my personal bacon anyways. And that’s without candying it.

    That’s one way to start pork n beans for family meal.

    I can’t tell you how many times I did this. Get caught up in an unexpected breakfast rush and then smell the burning.

  8. If it makes you feel better, Every kitchen that cooks bacon on hotel pans that i know has burned at least one or more pans at some point.

    Aww yeah that grilled eel looks amaz….

    Wait.

  10. Don’t worry, it’s just a sacrifice to the bacon God for a good service

    You tried it though right? Part of me think that might be delicious in a sandwich.

    Blackened some catfish, in my defense I was told it should go longer while I looked on like 😬

    I can smell this picture, and it makes me sad.

    Who is cooking bacon? That’s international sign for that shit is burnt. If you smell it, it’s too late

  15. richincleve

    If you think I wouldn’t eat that, you are sadly mistaken.

    Prep cook: “timer, chef!”

    Chef: “someone else can deal with it…”

    #ME TOO!

    And I used a recipe for time, I just didn’t watch it.

    The recipe lied!

    I was so sad about my bacon.

    BTW, put parchment paper underneath for easier cleanup.

    That’s not too bad. I once burnt two batches (one after the other) of candied pecan. It was like $150 wasted. Chef was not happy

    Hey not the worst I’ve seen, twice I’ve seen a KM forget about bacon and it catch fire in the oven.

    Toast in the damn conveyor toaster thing. Bloody machine is possessed by the devil.

  21. Jordyy_yy

    Nah you’re good just say its extra crispy bacon from the jeju black pig🤣

  22. Thats how my family like their bacon. Too well done for me though

    I worked at a BBQ joint. I’ve forgotten about a batch of chickens on the smoker, roughly twenty. That, however, pales in comparison to the time someone burned like 8 briskets.

    If you’re wondering how you burn barbeque, don’t worry it’s not easy. You just have to forget it’s on the smoker for several hours.

  24. rohrschleuder

    Yup, been there. Upside is, some people like “well done” bacon

  25. Insaanity_1

    You laugh but it’s pretty common to have people request us to throw bacon in the deep fryer until they’re that colour.

  26. PercentagePutrid4720

    Shit it happens man. I’ve burnt almonds

  27. SomeRandomName13

    My hand and pineapple upside down cake, both were about an hour ago.

    I left toast in the TurboChef after it finished its cycle. Promptly forgot about it and took out the charcoal slices much later.

    I had a chef tell me once, “we all make mistakes and burn things. No one will be mad about an honest mistake. Except for bacon. If you burn the bacon I’ll kill you.”

    Burnt bacon… happens to the best of us. The last thing I burned was a tavern style cheese pizza. If only it had some toppings it would’ve been perfect with the extra cook time. I suck.

    The classic Cajun Blackened bacon! Perfect execution
