Bacon Geeks

Posted on by
I love bacon and I am a geek, or is it a nerd, I am one of those people that can't tell the difference. I think one is cool and one is not.... I am the cool one, yeah that's it.
Anyway, a couple of geeky things today, but not just geeky, geeky with a taste o' bacon.
There was the iPhone bacon case, now there is a matching case for your shuffle.Not sure if a shuffle needs a case, but everything deserves to be wrapped in bacon. (Note to self, do not eat shuffle even when wrapped in bacon.)
I love Woot! I am not afraid to admit it, I got my first BoC in the last woot off, and I also like some of the shirts. Today's shirt is a glorious 8-bit bacon extravaganza. Go buy it now, as the price goes up at midnight and if it doesn't sell well its a one week only sort of thing!

J & D’s Bacon Salt Shipment

Posted on by
So just a quick post to let you know I got a mother load shipment in from the J&D Bacon Salt people. Amazon had a sweet deal on their products and if I bought enough I qualified for free super saver shipping.

I got 3 jars of Baconnaise, 3 original cans of bacon salt and the 4 pack of the different varieties of bacon salt. I haven't gotten to dig in much yet, I planned on having some with a store bought sandwich but realized it already had bacon on it...

More reports to follow!

Bacon Quesadillas

Posted on by
So I finally got around to trying one of my bacon ideas tonight for dinner. I picked up some deli bacon at Winco knowing that I needed to cook something with it. Tonight the stars were aligned and it was time to work up some bacon quesadillas. It is not the first time I have tried them, but the first time with fresh cooked bacon.

I cooked up the bacon in the frying pan and then cut it up roughly. I dumped a bit of the grease and then made up the quesadillas. I used two small taco size tortillas because that is what I had and then put on the bacon and some pre grated "mexican" cheese. Now comes my quesadilla secret, I put some cheese in the pan just before slapping it in. I am a lover of the fried cheese and it adds a nice crunchiness. Get one side cooked well and then lift it up throw down some more cheese and flip. Then as you can see I add a little salsa and sour cream to the plate. I also used the pizza cutter to make it into a nice finger meal.

The bacon is a nice touch. The flavor, crunchiness and cooking grease really add to a classic quesadilla. This is the first and probably easiest of my bacon ideas floating around in my head. I love bacon and will make sure and let you know how they go.

note: Sorry about the crappy pics, the iPhone failed me. Also don't know why the layout is so funky but live with it.

The Bacon Hangover

Posted on by
I saw that movie "The Hangover", and I only mention it as my friends have talked me into leaving for Vegas in a couple of hours. I will hopefully get some sort of awesome Vegas bacon action shots... (I think that consists of a buffet line with lots of bacon, not sure). Anyway, I wont be posting anything until after the return but maybe a twitpic? God I hope i don't have a memory lapse of bacon, that would be tragic!
