    Bacon

    I am going to try that Greg when we go home for Thanksgiving since I do not have a pan I want to drill a hole in. I believe I cook a lot more at a time then Jim can in the microwave.

    Questions to ask before accepting load

    Bacon

    Greg someone else was just telling me about the idea to cook the bacon on the grill but they went one step further. They have a cast iron skillet only used for bacon and they drilled a hole in the pan to keep bacon drained while cooking. He said he has been doing it that way for years and like...

    Bacon

    I do not do 30 to 40 minutes for bacon! That does not sound like fun Jim which is why my bacon is usually a clumped mess! I like really crisp bacon and have found my best luck is to just do it all in a pan and get it over with.

    Bacon

    Did I mention I HATE to cook bacon so even one pound of bacon tries my patience to no end. I also really like bacon and I have been pleased with how well this bacon has lasted and also the flavor. I will be doing this again next time we go home!

    Bacon

    Buying precooked bacon is expensive but it is really convenient to heat up in the truck. I am not going to cook bacon in the truck as I think the smell would linger for days on end. I was listening to a show a few months ago and the host came up with for me the perfect solution. Last time I...

    Wanting to get into expediting!!

    dogs

    We have talked with White Glove drivers and the difference between their income and ours with similar trucks can be several thousand dollars a year.

    Winter, straight truck starting problems Hino specifically

    We use synthetic oil which really helps with starting in the winter. If you have a generator and will be using it for heat plug your truck into it. When your generator starts to heat the sleeper you will also start the block heater.
