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

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

Re: Tinned Meat
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.
