Bacon Explosion Poses the Question: Is There Such Thing as Too Much Bacon?
The New York Times Food and Dining section brings news of an important experiment. Jason Day and Aaron Chronister, two competitive BBQers from Kansas City have manged to fuse the three greatest pork preparations (Sausage, Bacon, and BBQ) into one amazing dish. They call it Bacon Explosion.
Details of the experiment are available on the BBQ Addicts website. Jason Day has provided all the information you need to create your own Bacon Explosion, including a deceptively short list of ingredients, and detailed assembly instructions, complete with helpful photos.
I’ll be honest, I admire the passion for Bacon in some of these projects, but I wouldn’t want to eat the end result. That’s not the case with Bacon Explosion. My mouth is watering, and not just because it is past lunch time.

Bacon Flavor without Bacon?
Is bacon salt the ultimate food seasoning?
Invented by “two regular guys who love grilling and football on Sunday afternoons,” bacon salt is both vegetarian and Kosher, and, of course, it promises to bring the great taste of Bacon to everything and everyone!
It sounds like a beautiful dream, doesn’t it? I’d like to believe, I really would, but I can’t help but be skeptical. After all, how can you possibly have the great taste of bacon without the great taste of pork? Pork, for those of you who might not know, is neither vegegarian, nor Kosher.
But that’s not all. Bacon salt is low-sodium! Again, I want to believe, I really do. But, but, but here is the thing. Salt is MADE of sodium.
So how is it that you can have bacon salt that’s somehow low in salt and lacks bacon completely? What’s left?
I’ll be honest with you right now, I have no idea, I haven’t tried the stuff, and knowing what I know now, I don’t think I would, except for my deep sense of obligation, to you, my dear readers. And so, I will try this bacon salt that lacks bacon and comes up short on salt and report back to you.
Until then, I’ll leave you to ponder this. Bacon salt comes in 10 different flavors.

Miniature Apple Pie with BACON
This weekend we went to see a visiting exhibit of Roman art at the Seattle Art Museum. Afterwards we had lunch with friends at the museum cafe. I had miniature burgers with frites. It was delicious, but not quite filling enough, so I looked at the desert menu.
There I was delighted to find a miniature apple pie with bacon!! Of course I had to order it. It was delicious. It came with a thick strip of bacon encrusted with pecans and dark sugar, kind of like a bacon praline.
I don’t think it is a regular menu item, but its worth trying if they have it.
