Someone please make this.

I would but I value my cholesterol too much...

[psmith2.0]

Someone, not long ago at all, linked that very thing in a thread here. I can't remember who it was, or which thread. But I know I've seen that within the past few days.



EDIT: Ha...it was AWR, towards the end of the "compelling minor news stories" thread (he posted it yesterday...no wonder it seemed recent/familiar to me).

[bassplayinMacFiend]

GodDAMN that looks tasty! I'd probably have a myocardial infarction shortly afterwards, but I'd die with a smile on my face.

[kieran]

I'd love to make one of them.

It looks absolutely delicious.

Bacon and sausage. How could you go wrong?

Last week, I had an epic experience with chicken wrapped in bacon:

[turbulentfurball]

Anyone here played Resistance 2 multiplayer?

Every time I hear the Chimeran voice say 'Seize control of the beacon' I hear bacon in my head.

Now that's porking a girl!

[kieran]

They're going to be making one on Fox 29 here in Philly tomorrow morning. They just announced it in their Twitter feed.

Wow, never thought I'd say that. Getting news from a Twitter feed.

Bacon-bra FTW. Nothing like trichinosis and tits to cure what ails you.

Put both pictures together, and you have a bacon-i.

*rimshot*

[Maciej]

I'll show you a bacon explosion... those pics might help

[turtle]

alc put up a recipe for stuffed pork chops a while ago and it's likely the cousin to this thing. Awesome!

Edit: Found it.

[Capella]

I would try some of that. I know I'm mostly avoiding meat, but my secret love for bacon means I would absolutely need to try just a piece. Mmm.

I saw this Jim Gaffigan bit on Conan a while back: Bacon

Hilarious.

That is legendary bacon comedy. When I first saw that I sent it to probably 20 people.

BTW, for those in their late 30s and 40s who must think about such things, I think an acceptable name alternative for this meal is the "Arterial Explosion".

YES! I saw him live last fall and I've been meaning to look that bit up since. Thanks!

OH MY!! My husband saw this and said that all he would need is a slice and he'd be in Heaven! (literally.)

The ultimate tactical accessory, the new Tactical Bacon from CMMG ® is simply amazing. Kept in an aluminum can for a shelf life of 10+ years, the CMMG ® Tactical Bacon is more affordable than other pre-cooked bacon producers, who offer no tactical packaging for their product. Including 9 ounces (approx 54 slices) of pre-cooked bacon goodness, comparable to 3 pounds of raw bacon, the CMMG ® Tactical Bacon is perfect for camping trips, survival situations, a snack at the range, zombie attacks, and many other apocalyptic scenarios. Able to be eaten cold, or heated up, CMMG ® Tactical Bacon is sure to please bacon lovers of all ages.

Seriously. Thread. Store.

Still no Strategic Bacon, though. And no bacon for whoever spellchecked the label.

[SpecMode]

I wonder if they ship these internationally...

You guys have seen the B-AK 47 right?

Mmmmmm.... Bacon Beer.

There's a world of unusual beers out there just waiting to be discovered. Photograph: Louie Psihoyos/Getty Images/Science Faction Jewels Some of the beers are relatively normal: a Chilli IPA; a hop-free ale with yarrow, turmeric, bay and lemon balm; Shellfish Stout, brewed with oysters, cockles and mussels (oyster stout is a traditional style, many of them brewed with actual molluscs); a beer brewed with seawater; a Barley Tikka Vindaloo which includes chilli, ginger, coriander, cumin, cardamom and fennel; and one with added apple juice and crushed blackcurrants to recreate the perennial student favourite: Snakebite and Black. But then there's one based on Black Forest Gateau. A West Country White Ale, a recreation of a medieval beer style which contains eggs and flour. Heston's Offal Ale includes liver, kidneys and heart (meat ales aren't entirely new). And Jellyfish Red which, given what we already know, probably doesn't need much explanation. Brewing is art and science; if you know the science then you can play with creativity and a curious mind. That's what Howe is doing with his weekly series of beers; he's applying what he knows about beer to what he wants to know and having some fun in the process. "I'd be really interested in using blood plasma in a beer but that's a little too extreme," he says. "I've got a hallucinogenic beer with wormwood and "unnamed botanicals" coming up in a few weeks. I'm really looking forward to that." History has seen many different ingredients added to beer but more unusual ingredients are starting to find their way into brew pots and bottles around the world. Bacon beers have seen a strange increase in popularity in the US, some using smoked malt and others using actual bacon. Goose Island brewed Maple Bacon Stout with maple syrup and bacon and the appropriately named Uncommon Brewers in California have Bacon Brown which has a faintly smoky aroma and flavour which adds an interesting complexity to the beer. Chilli beer is also growing in popularity. Some of these play with the fruitiness of chilli, including Crown Brewery's Ring of Fire, a strong ale with a leading sweetness and a fruity, floral, spicy finish that doesn't blow smoke from your ears. However, other chilli beers seem intent on destroying your tongue with a Scoville scythe; the ultimate in undrinkable novelty beers. Dogfish Head, whose motto is "off-centred ales for off-centred people", brew Chicha, a particularly yuck-inducing corn beer native to Central and South America. Their version contains pink Peruvian peppercorns, yellow maize, purple maize and strawberries, but it's how it's made which really marks this one as different: the process involves "the salivation of corn to convert the starch into fermentable sugar". The maize is chewed (an enzyme in saliva helps to break down the starch), spat out and formed into "cakes" which are left to dry before being added to the brew kettle (there's a video of the process here). And there's more. Mamma Mia Pizza Beer contains tomato, garlic, basil and oregano. A number of beers are infused with tobacco or cigar smoke - Opperbacco's 10 e Lode Extra Vecchio and Birra del Borgo Keto. Lost Abbey's Gift of the Magi is a golden beer brewed with myrrh and bittered with the bark of frankincense. Short's Brewery in Michigan combine beers and desserts: they make Key Lime Pie which contains "fresh limes, milk sugar, graham crackers, and marshmallow fluff," their Bananas n Blow is made with real bananas and cocoa, and PB & J is a blend of peanut stout with fruit beer. Cannabis is a relative of the hop plant and hemp is added to a number of beers, though not all are as brazenly labelled as Cannabia. Pumpkin ale is an autumn seasonal and Cambridge Brewing, Massachusetts, hold a pumpkin beer festival each year – last year's beer list shows how creative one can get with a squash and a brewplant. Mikkeller's Beer Geek Brunch Weasel is an imperial oatmeal stout made with kopi luwak coffee, and a quick tour of Japan adds wasabi beer, miso beer and a beer made with 30% milk which one RateBeer reviewer describes as "interesting but basically vile", called Bilk. ... continues ...

Maple Bacon Stout seems to only be available from Goose Island breweries in Chicago... but it isn't even on their website.
Ditto with the Bacon Brown from Uncommon Beers in California.
You Yankee Novans will have to pursue them locally and report back.

Mmmmmm.... Bacon Beer....

[kieran]

I still want someone to make me this Bacon Explosion. Maybe I'll get to it in the spring....

[Foj]

With Christmas around the corner, it's just the right time for a bacon nativity scene.
