Really, who needs bread when you’ve got yourself a couple bacon weaves…

This work of brilliance from the fine men over at DudeFoods.com.

It’s been almost four years writing this blog.  I have seen the “bacon weave” countless of times, countless!  Never had I had the thought to use it as “bread”.  And here I thought I was creative…

Well played gentlemen, well played.

Sounds pretty intriguing doesn’t it? Well then wait until you see it…

Man o’ man, that looks fantastic sittin’ in a little pretzel roll!

Better yet, it’s as easy to “make” as it looks.  Put these out at your next party and be a hero!

Check out more photos and the “complete recipe” over at How Sweet It Is…(that’s where the above photo came from too)

“Killer” being the optimal word here…but hey, we’re all gonna die someday! Might as well enjoy ourselves and grab a couple of these.

Three of my favorite things, all thrown into a crockpot.  Walk away for a view hours and BAM, yummy goodness!

Bacon Cheese Potatoes

Sometimes it seems like I find things in bunches…the bacon blotter stories last week and now this week, tear away bacon bread recipes…

Look at that pure hunk of goodness right there.  It’s called a “pull”, I call it hot damn!  Believe it our not, it comes from the New York Times (yeah, I know, really, the New York Times)

Cheddar Bacon Ranch Pulls

Ingredients

• 1 unsliced loaf of sourdough bread (preferably round)
• 8 to 12 ounces Cheddar cheese, thinly sliced
• 3-ounce bag Oscar Mayer Real Bacon Bits (or just cook some up and pulse it, it’d taste batter)
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon ranch dressing mix

Method

1. Using a sharp bread knife, cut the loaf in both directions in a checkerboard pattern, being careful not to cut through the bottom crust.
2. Place slices of cheese between cuts.
3. Sprinkle bacon bits on bread, making sure to get between cuts.
4. Mix butter with ranch dressing mix. Pour over bread.
5. Wrap loaf in foil and place on baking sheet.
6. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
7. Unwrap. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.

Bubble bread???  I can honestly tell you, I have never heard of “bubble bread” in all my 40 years. After finding this recipe, I believe it will now become a staple at casa de bacon.

That is the finished product after it’s fetched from the oven.  To get a better sense of all the goodness that goes into than bowl, head over to Tasty Kitchen.  Full recipe with terrific photos (including the one featured) for your enjoyment.

Look at our sweet ol’ grandma! Her name is Norma Pemberton and from what they report in Australia’s “Central Coast Express Advocate” she’s got quite a knack for cookin’ up cheese and bacon snacks.

Being the wonderful lady that she is, she’s shared the recipe with the paper and now, through the, I share it with you.
