Recipe Introduction

Freshside is basically uncured bacon. It is very delicious but not very lean. It is also difficult to find in supermarkets. After the pork is fried, make a gravy from the drippings and serve it over fresh hot biscuits for a real treat. I was raised eating this and it is comfort food. My Grandmother learned to stretch an egg by stirring it into the drippings before adding the flour and milk for the gravy.

fresh side pork (sliced about 1/4 inch thick)
salt
pepper
flour
vegetable oil


Recipe

Salt and pepper both sides of pork slices.
