Chocolate-covered bacon

by Don  

I've been meaning to make chocolate-covered bacon for some time using the recipe mentioned on Primal Toad. Today I did it. Here's my variation.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb. of thick-cut bacon. Don't use the skinny crap they sell in dairy case. Get it from the butcher.
  • 3.5 oz of good quality chocolate, chopped
  • 1 tbsp of butter

Method

  1. In a small frying pan melt the butter over low heat.
  2. Add the chocolate, stirring to smooth it out.
  3. Dip the bacon in the chocolate. Transfer it to a wire cooling rack. Put it in the fridge for a couple of hours to firm up.

This turned out pretty good, although it probably won't become part of my regular diet.
