Bacon Mac & Cheese

My Cork and Knife Interview
I recently did an interview with Chip over at Cork and Knife about Bacon Unwrapped. We talked about how this blog got started, memorable ways in which I’ve encountered bacon, and my favorite ways to cook bacon. Here’s the link to the interview.

Bobby Van's Bacon
When most people think of Bobby Van’s, they think of steak. But until recently, I’d never noticed how many bacon items they have on their menu. For lunch your bacon options include Harry’s Salad, Spinach Salad, Cobb Salad, bacon on your hamburger, BLT, Crab BLT, Rigatoni Carbonara, and even Eggs
