Bacon-Wrapped Pork Roast


Happy Pig wrapped in Happy Pig! And a return appearance from Baked Mac n' Cheese. Pork roast rubbed with garlic, rosemary, and thyme wrapped in burgundy-peppered bacon. Very tasty dish. Big portions aren't necessary because the dish is so flavorful. Grade: A

Baked Mac n' Cheese

Semi-homemade: I used a slightly higher-quality noodle; made a cheese sauce with butter, milk, a little flour, and a lot of shredded cheddar; and then threw on some bread crumbs and baked it in the oven for about 25 minutes. Grade: A

Basic recipe: Here

Bacon Cheddar Scones

Bacon Chedda' Scones. Bacon, Bacon Chedda' Scones. From Zingerman's Guide to Better Bacon and with help from Jamie. These ones turned out okay, and the recipe has a lot of upside potential. Grade: B

Buffalo Chicken Cheese Balls
