Chicken-Fried Bacon, I think I just popped a boner!
Our State Fair ended a few weeks ago....there was just an incredible amount of shit that was deep fried on a stick. I can't remember any of it right now though.

The Minnesota State Fair is running and one of the news channels here was talking about some of the shit on the menu...chocolate covered bacon on a stick, deep fried rattlesnake in chocolate...not everything should be covered in chocolate.

Author's note: Is it possible to improve upon a classic BLT? I think so, by adding another layer of flavor with my bacon mayonnaise. The recipe makes about enough for four sandwiches. It's best to use it all up as the bacon fat will turn it solid in the refrigerator.
Makes about 1/2 cup/125 ml
1 egg yolk
3/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup/125 ml liquid bacon
Combine the egg yolk, mustard, and lemon juice in the small bowl of a food processor or in a blender and process to mix. Season with salt and pepper. Have the bacon fat liquid, but not hot. With the machine running, gradually add the bacon fat until the mixture starts to stiffen and emulsify, about two minutes. Once it starts to emulsify, you can add the fat more quickly. If the mayonnaise is too thick, just blend in one teaspoon of boiling water to thin it. Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Word of the day: liquid bacon
You know what's good on a BLT, avocado...the creaminess really offsets the bacon flavor and the saltiness. I was on a big avocado binge a few months ago, they make everything good.
