I feared as much.
I can never seem it find Bacon Grill. Is it generally available, or only found in certain shops?

Agree. It is my top bait.

Has anyone had success with huge lumps of tinned meat ie 1/2 or more of a can on the hook?

Have had success on various versions of 'meat' (although I prefer to do the flavouring myself), also for a change cheap tinned 'frankies' can work very well for barbel.
