For you Bacon lovers!

Holy Heart-attack! That would be great with some white gravy and a biscuit.

Hmmmmmmm ...... biscuits and some soppin' gravy.

I'm gonna try it at home when I got on vacation this summer, only I think I'll try it with some seasoned cubed beef and on the grill.

Brothers,

I attempted this feat today for a dinner we were hosting for some friends. Wife and I have a group of friends that we meet up every other wednesday for dinner. More info and explanation on this in my blog at:

Anyways, I decided this would be a perfect ocassion for the amazing bacon explosion and I photographed my progress. Enjoy:

Here are the ingredients. The only change was that instead of using sausage, we decided to use ground beef (wife's choice).



Here is the Bacon weave:



Here is the bacon weave with condiment, I used Louisiana Cajun Seasoning in honor of the Saints victory



Laid out the ground beef, cooked bacon, and I added a few Jalapenos (it's a Texas thing )



I decided to play it safe since my friends have big appetites so I made a second one just in case



Rolled and ready! This was probably the trickiest part since it is very easy for the ground beef to crumble. Patience and steady hands are needed:



I did not have a ruler on hand so I used a different method to measure length....a churchill



PLEASE SEE PART 2 FOR THE CONCLUSION....

Final product:



Yes, I made them!



Ready for the oven fellas:



My method was 30 minutes @ 280 degress (flip twice), 20 minutes @ 310 degs (flip twice), 5 minutes at 350 degrees (flip twice) and here is the outcome:







Time to enjoy:



Thanks to MemphisFred for decreasing my lifespan by about 17 days I thouroughly enjoyed this. BTW, all pictures were taken with my cell phone camera. I love this thing! Dinner was followed by a Padron 4000

Was it good? How spicey hot is that combination? It's an intersting idea I can see a lot of different combinations.

[MemphisFred]

You're oh so welcome, but just 17 days, hell I can hear you arteries hardening from here

Different combinations indeed...so how was it with the cajun rub, beef & penos?

Loved the ruler btw

Cinda,
It was not spicy at all. I may have to use more next time around or just go with some Habaneros.

Fred,
The rub was very peppery and good! I am glad I used ground beef since it really felt like you were having a burger.

Buzz,
You gotta try this man!
