As If I Needed Any More Motivation To Drink

Screw this politics shit!!1!1! Let's talk about the serious stuff in life, namely booze and bacon. And, praise be to Gaia, some enterprising lad in Massachusetts decided to market a product after my own heart (attack):

Bacon-flavored vodka!


“Everything is better with bacon. It’s one of my favorite foods,” said Don Yovicsin, the owner of Jake’s Dixie Roadhouse in Waltham. “So when one of my friends mentioned the idea of bacon and vodka, it piqued my curiosity.”

He fried a batch of Niman Ranch thick-cut applewood-smoked bacon, added the crispy bacon to a large infuser jar with Absolut vodka, then let it sit for four weeks. After the liquor was smoky, he filtered out the bacon pieces with cheesecloth, chilled the vodka to congeal the bacon fat, then removed it via coffee filter.




You, sir, are the greatest man alive and have singlehandedly made New England worth keeping.

1 Someone needs to send a case to Russ from Winterset IMMEDIATELY.

And a case to me.  Again, IMMEDIATELY.

And it needs to be re-branded as Val-U-Rite Bacon Vodka.

4 eb, this is truly a bittersweet moment.  I mean, what a gift to the world - an alcohol that tastes like swine.  We're talking Nectar of the Gods level stuff here.

The bitter part is I no longer drink.  Why oh why couldn't this have come about five years sooner?

Somebody try this and post their appraisal, please.  I shall live vicariously through you.

5 All I could do right now is cook up some bacon, dump it into a shotglass of vodka, and let it rip.

Hey! Sounds like a good idea! I now have plans for tomorrow night!
