[ale] [OT] for the foodies

[Jim Kinney]

He bought about $20 worth of bacon and Italian sausage from a local
meat market. As it lay on the counter, he thought of weaving strips of
raw bacon into a mat. The two spackled the bacon mat with a layer of
sausage, covered that with a crunchy layer of cooked bacon, and rolled
it up tight.

They then stuck the roll . containing at least 5,000 calories and 500
grams of fat . in the Good-One Open Range backyard smoker that they
use for practice.


This recipe is the Bacon Explosion, modestly called by its inventors
.the BBQ Sausage Recipe of all Recipes.. The instructions for
constructing this massive torpedo-shaped amalgamation of two pounds of
bacon woven through and around two pounds of sausage and slathered in
barbecue sauce first appeared last month on the Web site of a team of
Kansas City competition barbecuers.
