Homemade bacon salt is one of those ingredients that I always keep on hand in the refrigerator, allowing me to add a slight bacon-y finish to virtually any dish – from eggs to grilled chicken to grilled vegetables to steak and so on.

In addition to be darn tasty, it’s also extremely easy to create, combining extra crispy bacon with Kosher salt and blending until the bacon is finely chopped and incorporated in to the salt.  Once complete, you can really take the finishing salt over the top by giving it a quick blast of smoke on the grill.
