If they taught stuff like this back when I was in Baptist school then I would not be so damned traumatized now. I think I use bacon and rum coffee as an emotional band-aid to hide the pain of my hippie-free childhood religous experience.
Well now you have a bacon-aid to mend your wounds… :bacon
Oh yeah!!! Thanks for the Band-Aid bacon strips!!! I can’t wait to totally bust my ass mountain biking so I can doctor myself with bacon!
I don’t think I sent you enough for major disasters, just for splatter burns from grease.
This weekend we did some camping and Sam developed Bacon flavored roasted smores. Just thought I’d share. :pig :pig :pig
Obviously Sam is a damned genius and deserves the next Nobel Peace Prize in the catagory of Bacon!
that is brilliant! Sam is a prodigy! I’m salivating right now at the thought of a graham cracker layer with melted marshmellow, chocolate and BACON!
Tell us - what does Sam advise for the proper placement of the bacon? On top of the pile? Smooshed between the marshmellow and the chocolate or directly on the cracker?
I made Buttermilk Cornbread with Bacon Drippings on Sunday.
Couldn’t eat it but it sure smelled good!
He got so excited about the idea of merely flavoring his marshmallow with bacon by roasting it over a fire consisting mostly of paper towels used for draining said pork one can only imagine the chaos that might have ensued had it crossed his mind to actually put the bacon on the smore. Oh my. As it was he wandered camp for at least 20 minutes while it cooked muttering “bacon” in varing volumes and tones. Quite sad actually to see a kid so bereft.
Oh, We understand… that happens quite often up at Run-A-Muck! :lol
So, it’s ‘Bacon Flavored’ S’mores. Why didn’t Hooch or Mitch think of that one?
:pig :huh :pig
Auntie Hope :pickin :green
There was this show on the Travel Channel last night - Anthony Bourdain, No Reservations - he takes a trip to the Pacific Norhtwest and visits this donut shop in Portland - Voodoo Donuts.
In addition to the “cock and balls” donut (check that one out on the website, a bachorlette party favorite, I guess), they have the Maple Bacon donut:

If I knew how to use the “insert image” button, I would just paste the darn picture, but I can’t figure that one out.

I was in the voddoo donut shop back in February. I did not try the maple bacon one, but had a pretty tasty chocolate covered donut. It is a total hole in the wall, but evidently quite the Portland institution. :pig <<< as close to bacon as I could find.
:thumbsup
Voodoo Donuts rock! SHHHHhhh…don’t tell Sam about the bacon bars though :festival.
On my river trip last weekend we intentionally cooked 7 pounds of bacon Saturday morning. There were 12 of us on the trip. The amount of bacon was necessary not just for the sustaining of life as we know it but because we needed fuel for…
THE GREASE BOMB! :thumbsup
Ok anyone from homeland security…don’t watch :eek
That’s a dangerous idea to be putting into my head for TBF next year!..or Folks Fest next week!!
Wonder how the BATF regards the grease bomb? :rolleyes
OMFG !!!
Jess your Nuts !
but Soooooooo Cool
ok Guys no Bombs at BG
even though All our Camps could
put out any Forest Fire
since we are ALL armed to the teethe
with Fire extenghushers …
sorry beer impaired
Why thank you!
I must say though that as Grease Bombs go that was not my best work. It’s way cooler when you can get them to go thermo-nuclear with a secondary explosion. I’m blaming it on pre-mature ignition. I should have given the bacon grease another 15 minutes to really get hot.
But it was 110 degrees, I was slightly - just slightly - altered and I really just wanted to get back down to the party on the boats where it was much cooler. But heat and impatience are no reason to ignite a grease bomb early! I have learned the error of my ways on this one.
Wardrobe? What wardrobe?
Kids - DO NOT TRY THIS AT BLUEGRASS!!!
I totally agree…the Grease Bomb is not appropriate for blue grass. The Grease Bomb is a river thang. Created by housewives in the midwest, it was refined perfected and taken to new heights by river guides in Idaho who then passed it on to river guides in Grand Canyon.
If you notice, I am using an 11 foot oar and am crouched VERY low to set it off. There are NO trees or anything else within 50 yards of that thing except for the ignition crew who are crouched VERY low and using an 11 foot oar. Did you notice how crouched low we were??
Nope - if you wanna save your bacon grease and jump on a river trip sometime that would be the time and place to learn this new skill.
No flaming festivarians at bluegrass - PLEASE!
