when i was doing a tasting for catering 2 weeks ago, they had set up food carts you can add to reception- things like milk and cookies, crab legs and clams, decorate your own donut, etc.....
and yes, yes there was a bacon cart! hahaha! you can have bacon, peppered bacon, candied bacon, bacon wrapped water chesnuts, bacon wrapped shrimp and scallops, on and on.
If it wouldn't give my mother in law a stroke , we would so want it (we're jewish, but we aren't kosher).
might have to do a bacon themed dinner for the fella one day just for fun now.

Ohhh bacon cart

I know, huh? Sounds like a great idea.

I just have to say that the most satisfying thing about this WOE is crispy bacon each and every day It's like LC candy
Seriously, this is the life!
I can't imagine eating any other way

Oh definitely Meat Candy...

Haha meat candy....
They really have that. Last night I was searching for bacon bars and found chocolate covered bacon on Amazon. They actually sell that. Unfortunately it had sugar in it but still, just the thought might be interesting

This BACON CHIPOTLE LETTUCE WRAP is really good for lunch. It is also good done with my homemade Shawarma Mayo for a tasty variation:

I’m sodium sensitive so I only use one thick slice of bacon on each lettuce wrap. You might want to use two or even three!

INGREDIENTS:
1 leaf romaine lettuce
.5 oz. red bell pepper, cut into strips
.5 oz. onion, cut into strips
.5 oz. poblano pepper, cut into strips
1 tsp. bacon grease
1 piece thick-sliced bacon (or 2 thin slices)
2 T. chipotle mayonnaise (see below)

CHIPOTLE MAYO: 2T. homemade mayonnaise + ½ chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, seeded and mashed well. Puree or mash these two ingredients together with a fork until a smooth mixture is formed.

DIRECTIONS: Cook the slice of bacon in a skillet over medium high heat. Add the extra tsp. of bacon grease (if needed). Add pepper and onion strips and sear/saute until they begin to soften and lightly brown. Lift the peppers and onions onto the lettuce leaf. Add the bacon. Spread or squirt the chipotle mayo on the center. Finally, chow down!

Hope you like them, Mviesprite.

I totally forgot about this one and I can't wait to make it!!

I have several homegrown bell peppers that I've decided to make poppers with today. A good chink of bell pepper, Cream cheese and wrap with bacon then bake.

OMG yes YUM!!

mmm love poppers!

I forget if I mentioned this salad on this thread before, earlier this week for 2 nights my dinner was a Wedge Salad - simple, minus the onion...wedge of Iceberg lettuce, diced tomato, crumbled bacon on top, and a homemade Gorgonzola dressing....so delicious. I used y0u's blue cheese dressing recipe which is so good, with Gorgonzola instead of regular blue.

Kat, your salad sounded so good that I made the same type of salad for lunch with bacon and blue cheese and also added some rotisserie chicken
