What gives with the cheeseburgers lately? Everywhere I turn, bacon cheeseburgers are in my face, tempting me to be bad. Very bad. The latest rage seems to be the Krispy Kreme Bacon Cheeseburger, the basics on a glazed donut instead…

Okay, so if you read yesterday's post, you'll know I made bacon-infused bourbon over the weekend. And when my bacon bourbon was complete, I wanted to get some expert opinions on its flavor. Where better to go than to the…

So I finally did it. I made bacon bourbon over the weekend to share with some friends, and I thought I'd give you the step-by-step account. First things first, introductions. Bacon, meet Bourbon. Bourbon, Bacon. Okay, pleasantries out of the…

How do I feel this morning? Outdone, that's how. The amazing minds at Epic Nomz have created a burger so beautiful, so mouth-wateringly lovely to think about, I can hardly stand it. Once again, a bacon recipe that has me…

This is Aaron Rowand. He's a baseball player. He formerly played for the White Sox and the Phillies, and is currently center fielder for the San Francisco Giants. I cannot tell you how often I come across his name during…

I don't know if you remember the series Pete & Pete from early-90s Nickelodeon. That show was a trip, a bit surreal with lots of jokes that went over the intended audience's heads. I was in my 20s when this…

I know what you're thinking. "Those cookies don't look like bacon." That's because the ingenious chef behind this cookie is hiding it from us. It's a Bacon Snap; much like a ginger snap but made with bacon grease in place…

How many times will Archie McPhee amaze me?! (I really must stop being so surprised every time they come out with YET ANOTHER bacon product.) This nifty little folder acts sort of like a magic eight ball, but with bacon!…
