A day to celebrate America’s favorite savory treat (bacon of course!) has finally arrived and we want YOU to join us in celebrating International Bacon Day on Sept. 5, 2009! These days, the rasher is spreading beyond the borders of breakfast and into dishes as varied as bacon martinis and bacon ice cream. So, to honor bacon’s continuing rise in popularity and help you prepare for the big day, we’re providing all things bacon, including delicious recipe suggestions fit for a celebration. Let the countdown begin!
"Baconators"
For an even bigger and better Bacon Day bash this year, we’ve enlisted help from some of our favorite bacon-loving friends including:
- Inventors of the bacon explosion, the BBQ Addicts.
- Leaders of the Bacon Day rally cry, the Royal Bacon Society.
- To really get the bacon crackling, we teamed up with James Villas, author of The Bacon Cookbook, to share our secrets to bacon perfection and to get the most “bang” for your bacon buck all year round. Check out some of our tips here.
