Peameal is just a wonderful breakfast meat. We have it almost every Saturday morning in some sort of benedict. And we've fixed it for a crowd, frying up slices to serve with eggs, toast, jam and potatoes. Some mornings, though, people are on the run...or sometimes they want a little something, but not that big American breakfast.Enter Bacon-Cheese Pull-Aparts. Think of this as savory Monkey Bread. You remember Monkey Bread...refrigerator biscuits, cut into pieces, dipped into butter, shaken in sugar and cinnamon and piled into a bunt pan, baked and turned out. You pulled off piece(s), as many as you liked. This is more a slice apart, than pull apart. If you eat it warm, you'll need a plate and fork. Eat it a little cooler, slice off a piece, and all you'll need is a napkin as you go out to run your errands. YUM!
