The Smithee Awards Blog

We made Grilled Cheese Cake Sandwiches the other day because...well why not? OK, other than they are exTREMEly rich and can probably shave 3-4 years off of your life expectancy just looking at them let alone eating them but you only live once right?

We're losing one of our local Smitheeites this week to a new job in Virginia so today we had a bit of a good bye celebration get together. The Guru and I made a send off batch of Dark Chocolate Bacon Crunch Sorbet (from the bacon blog) and it was AWESOME! No really. AWE!SOME! Even if the bacon squicks you out, the chocolate sorbet base it worth trying. However, the bacony bits are very tasty and not as bacony as you might think.

Could this be the official ice cream of the Smithee Awards? Mmmmmaybe Kittens, maybe.

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

Slice bacon into 1/2 inch strips and dredge in brown sugar until thoroughly coated.

Bake until crispy. Allow to cool and harden before serving.

Hello Smithee Fans!

I will be posting some Smithee-eriffic recipes as I locate them. Hopefully we'll see some on the Banquet of Bad table!

Today's recipe is Bacon and Cheese Potato Pie! There's nothing quite as bad as a package of bacon, cooked in butter, then combined with over a cup of cheese and 2+ pounds of potatoes and then baked into a pie!

Enjoy!
