Bacon Nation Unwrapped: The House of Bacon, Resolutions
Recent news from the Bacon Nation… Meat House is the new Gingerbread House. Bacon makes a nice roof for this Potato, Bacon, and Cheese Casserole. Screw diets…take the Bacon Challenge in 2008. Another New Year’s resolution idea – use Bacon Salt to create a new cocktail every month. Time for […]
Bacon Pumpkin Pie
To celebrate my 400th entry on Bacon Unwrapped, I decided to bake a pie. Yes, you read that correctly. I have now written about bacon 400 times in the last 2.5 years of my life. And while not every entry has involved me eating bacon, I’m guessing at least […]
Hormel Black Label Maple Bacon
