That's right...you heard me! I said CARAMELIZED BACON! It's delicious and easy to make too! Here's what you need:

1 pound of your favorite bacon (the thicker the better)
1 cup brown sugar

Preheat your oven to 350. I like to pour the brown sugar into a 9x13 pan. Place the bacon in the pan a few slices at a time. Make sure to coat both sides evenly. Shake off extra sugar and place bacon on a lined baking sheet (foil or parchment paper). Sprinkle what sugar is left onto the bacon. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until crispy. Keep a close eye on your bacon! it will burn FAST! Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Transfer the bacony goodness to a wire rack to finish cooling. The longer it sits, the crispier it gets. If you wan to soften it up a bit, just put it back it the oven for a minute or two. Enjoy!

You can spice it up too! Just sprinkle with a little cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes before you baking.

Today's MQOTD comes to us from the lovely Elsiha Cuthbert. She's mostly known for her roles in the hit Fox series "24" and the movies "Old School" and "The Girl Next Door". But Elisha hit the proverbial "meat nail" on the head in her most recent role on the short lived ABC series "Happy Endings". She was giving her ex a pep talk on starting his dream restaurant when she waxed philosophical:

"You don't need to try and make the vegans happy...they never will be! Steak sandwich ok? Stick with what you know!"

I couldn't have said it better myself! Hope to see you very soon Elisha!

There's still plenty of BBQ season left and coleslaw goes great with just about everything! I like to make this when I'm making my sure fire pulled pork. It's super simple and there are hardly any ingredients, so it's cheap too! Here's what you need:

7 c. Shredded coleslaw mix
1 c. Mayo
1/4 c. vinegar
1/4 c. sugar
2 Granny Smith apples (pealed, cored, and shredded)
pinch of salt and fresh cracked pepper

Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl, cover and refrigerate for at least an hour. It gets better the longer it sits. I like to make mine after I start the pork. Enjoy!

MEAT!!

What is the world coming too? Not even classic childhood icons are safe from the undead! I wonder if Big Bird tastes like chicken?

You read it right folks! Today, March 14th, is officially Steak and BJ Day! So, once again, Happy Steak and BJ Day!


I did some research and came up with some of the history behind this ingenious holiday. Apparently it was invented to be paired up along with Valentines Day. You can find out more about at www.officialsteakandblowjobday.com
Now ladies, you know that Valentines Day is geared mainly at you. I mean us men have to hunt for the perfect card or gift. We try to find the perfect restaurant, bouquet of flowers, and so on or (let's be honest) you'll make us pay for it in some way or another. So, someone (yes, it was a man) came up with a day where men can get equal time. A day where all men can feel appreciated. And here's the best part...MEN ARE EASY! No need to get a card or flowers or hunt for a gift. All you need to do is give us a steak and a BJ. What could be easier?

Now, I know what some of you are thinking. What about those men who are the "V" word? Y'know the vegetarians. Well, I have two things to say about that:

1. Guys who are vegetarians are NOT real men!

2. Vegetarians are too pasty and weak to get girlfriends or wives anyway!

So, in closing ladies...show the man in you life that you care and help celebrate this wonderful day!
