I know it’s not a novel idea, but when your girlfriend asks for bacon wrapped hot dogs, you deliver. Am I right?

I’ve been using the microwave at BaconOrgy.com headquarters for years and did not see this button until today.  I think everything should have a bacon button.  What do you think?

This came across the e-mail today, and I got only one comment: I am trying them this weekend!  They sound awesome!  Please “ben the’reverend” send us pictures too.

like smores, but with bacon
no, not gimme some more bacon; no thank you, no more bacon- that was so delicious i can now die feeling my life is complete.

enjoy the wonderful combination of flavors, and the momentary stopping or your heart as you realize the fullness of this life altering experience.

Now this is a cause I can get behind. I received this from a friend tonight and you can guarentee it’s going on what ever vehicle I drive that day! Thanks Amanda, it’s awesome!

As Mrs. Baconninja, I often find myself caught up in the desire to add bacon to all recipes just to see what works. The Forum recently featured a story about bacon and the author was kind enough to include two bacon recipes, both of which interested me. Tonight I tried the first one, dark chocolate bacon cupcakes. I failed to take sufficient photos of the process…actually I failed to take ANY pictures in my excitement to try this chocolately-frosted pork fat creation. Lucky for me Baconnija stepped in and managed to get one picture of the final product before he ate the subject of the photo. I plan to try this recipe again and pledge to provide sufficient photographs next time. If you were fortunate enough to try one of these creations (and you know who you are!) I am accepting critisim, constructive or otherwise.

mmmmmm chocolate and bacon

So…I posted about a Bacon Chicken Garlic Pizza we had in Walker MN last weekend, well, we tried to duplicate it last night.  Ours came out very close to what we had in Walker.  The best thing about ours was the garlic flavor didn’t over power the bacon flavor.

…couldn’t drag me away from this bacon lunch.

On a side street of Fargo’s fabulous re-gentrified Broadway, a new beer and burger joint occupies a narrow and deep space reminiscent of East Coast Irish Pubs. Named in memory of a legendary local proprietor, JL Beers offers over 50 brews and serves the best bar burgers since the good ol’ days of Gert burgers at Mick’s Office across the river. (Sorry Mick’s, but they have gotten too thin.)

Three co-workers and I made our way there through the recently deposited snow drifts in hopeful search of comfort food. We found solace not on the wall of beer taps, but ironically enough in the Humpty Dumpty; a thick juicy burger topped with cheese, a fried egg and BACON!!! You can’t go wrong with that fairy tale combination. But unlike the nursery rhyme, this Humpty Dumpty will be put together again, and again, and again and…

On our way to Virgina MN for a hockey tournament we stopped at Village Square (http://www.villagesquarewalker.com/pizza.htm) in Walker MN. We ordered a Bacon Chicken Garlic pizza for the three of us. It was wonderful! The bacon was real bacon cut into squares, the garlic was fresh and very flavorfull. The pizza was some of the best I’ve ever had. This picture doesn’t do the pizza justice.
