A stylish photo documenting chorizo, bacon, and Uncle Oinker's Savory Bacon Mints.

Bacon, bacon everywhere, so let's all have a drink. (In this case, by "drink" I mean "bacon mat cut into a circle and draped over an industrial stainless steel mold and baked at 450 for about 30 minutes then filled with stuff")

Stuff you need to make history.

More stuff you need to make history with. (BRG is not included with most chorizo purchases. Please check with your grocer for availability)

Cuttin' some bacon the width of the baco mold.

Weaving.

Focused on the task at hand-- bacon weaving.

Bacon mat time.

This is about 500x more fun than it should be.

cutting the bacon mat into the traditional baco shape.

BACO SHELL READY FOR BAKING

Aluminum foil helps keep the baco from sticking to the mold.

Maple bacon was used for the Breakfast Baco.

Ready for voyage into the Oven of Glory (which fortunately is at my place, so the commute is relatively short)

Much like Native Americans used every part of the buffalo, Team Baco 2.0 used every part of the baco. Here we are converting scraps of bacon into delicious baco ingredients. Also, makin' some eggs for Breakfast Baco.

I am attending to the eggs, bacon, and PBR.

YUM!! Actually, more like YUM².

NOTE: toothpicks do not actually help.

Tower of bacon

People either complement me or give me crap for my wall art arrangement of thrift store frames and leftover orange paint. I guess that means it's a good conversation piece.

This time with flash!

More dramatic bacon

Caprese Baco. Mozzarella, tomato, basil. SO GOOD.

Baco shell structural integrity fail!

Hahaha, I love bacos so much.

Hey BRG- you've got some haco on your stache, dude.

Stuff for bacos (and hacos)

Munchin'

this baco shell committed suicide in the oven! BACOCIDE! Tragedy.

BACOCIDE!

Breakfast Baco is about to get grabbed, yo.

Breakfast Baco slides down my throat straight into my heart.

Kyle H gets in on this baco action.

More BRG-baco love

Another important ingredient for Baco Night... Vik! (hahaha, I bet you thought I was refering to the beer or peppercinis. Gotcha!)

millin' around at Baco Night

Ultimate Baco gets seasoned ground lamb, onions, and peppercinis

Ultimate Baco has some scrambled egg and sun-dried tomatos installed.

Yep, we added some Brie.

Hahaha, it turns out it's a good idea to cut the stem off of the peppercinis

More brie.

HAHAHA, here comes some watermelon!

Yeah, why not, let's dump some ground blue cheese and feta on Ultimate Baco.

Also, some sprigs of rosemary.

Ultimate Baco so far: Lettuce, seasoned ground lamb, onions, sun-dried tomato, brie, blue cheese, feta, scrambled egg, watermelon, rosemary, peppercini.
