You'll need to stir periodically to make sure nothing is getting stuck to the bottom of the pot. It may cook a bit quicker on the stove top, but not a lot quicker.

I know you lose some of that flavor but I like the bacon to be crunchy, rather than soggy. I Prefer to cook the bacon and then allow people to add to their bowls ideally. I think when you were here, I added the bacon before bringing the pot to the table. I believe I used the smokey paprika which I have become a fan of since discovering it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3313009931298256746.post-1573781383163591132011-11-07T20:17:45.932-07:002011-11-07T20:17:45.932-07:00Hey Sarah,
