Here is the description of the "bacon" from All Things Bright and Beautiful by James Heriot.

a great hunk of cold boiled bacon. But it wasn't ordinary bacon, it was one hundred percent fat without a strip of lean anywhere. Even in my shocked state i could see it was a work of art; cooked to a turn, beautifully encrusted with golden crumbs and resting on a spotless serving dish . . . but fat.
