Bacon-tober Continues...

Well, since we had about 40 lbs of meat and only about 15 guests, BaconFest has not ended for me or Josh.  Pork seems to be part of our daily diet for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and its been going on for almost the entire month of October now!  Luckily Josh and I are very creative with combining leftover meat and organic veggies from our veggie box, giving us the best of both worlds.  Good thing we like pork!  What follows is just a small sample of the many delicious items that we have created.


Sautéed Collard Greens and Bacon served alongside a Pork Stuffed Bell Pepper.

Scrambled Egg and Wild Boar Sausage Burrito, wrapped in a giant Collard Greens Leaf.

And the big winner of the month was this mouth-watering birthday cake creation, invented by Stacia Federowski Lange for our dad's birthday: Maple Bacon Ice Cream Layer Cake!! OMG, talk about amazing!! 

We also found a whole extra rack of pork ribs that got mysteriously stashed back in the oven instead of getting cut up and served at BaconFest...too bad they were a week old now and totally stinky and gross!!
Also missing from these photos was a huge batch of Wild Boar Stew that fed us for days and days... Again, cheers to Bacon-Tober, and we'll see you all again next year!
