Here’s a NY Times linkwith pictures of the construction and of the finished product. My vegetarian daughter sent me the link with a double-dog dare to make it. She oughta know better than that–I’ll make her watch us eat it!
Don’t forget to add Baconaise!
I just printed out that recipe!
I figure if I make it for Sunday’s game, I can just start clutching my chest and turning blue now.
I’m staying Schwabia right now. The first night here, at the nice restaurant in our hotel, we went down for dinner. They served bread with a little ball of cold, solidified bacon fat with small flecks of bacon thoughout. When you spread it on the bread it melted. Good times.
And make sure you wear your bacon tuxedo.
That bacon lattice is a thing of beauty all on its own.
Oh my goodness, I saw something about this today and was wondering if the Dopers had caught wind of it yet!
Is that thread about “recession-proof jobs” still floating around? If so, this alone should add ‘cardiologist’ to the list! 
I am so tempted to make one of these!
And for the ladies, the bacon bra (Warning: NSFW). [noparse]http://www.flickr.com/photos/briankusler/2337430825/[/noparse]
And during the game, popcorn with bacon salt.
Enjoy,

OK, I’m posting again so close to my last post because this cracked me up:
I sent a link to my hubby. He and I are both fans of high-fat, high-protein foods.
Three to five minutes after I sent the link, he called me from work. He said:
“I got the link you sent me. Didn’t you get my email?”
“No. What?”
He had sent me the exact same link!
Our marriage will last until one of us goes into terminal cardiac arrest!
So…halftime then?
I would suggest combining that link (which has great visuals in the photos) with the link I gave in post #14 above (which has good verbal description that includes all the details).
I’ve seen a lot of these bacon type memes around online and figure they have to be pretty much a joke. I mean, seriously guys, would you really want to eat that? Might as well just fry some bacon and drink the bacon grease.
It honestly makes my stomach roll.
The difference between fried bacon and bacon smoked over a period of several hours is (going to be) enormous. The nutritional differences between the two isn’t even comparable. People in the thread are joking over the horribleness of it, but I expect most of the grease and fat to render out.
Not sure why that confuses you, certainly you’ve seen the pictures of the bacon and cheese roll where they’re cutting into it and you can see the ooziness of the fat?
The recipes I’ve seen seem like someone is making a joke of how they can find a recipe to include the most ingredients to give you a heart attack the fastest. I just never know if the people who are saying they are going to try these are joking or serious.
Bacon burger dogs

A few weeks ago, I was walking past a coworker who had 6 or so slices of bacon in his hand.
“Hey bacon! Where’d you get the bacon?” I asked excitedly.
He replied “Oh I found it.”
Found bacon?
As big of a fan of bacon as I am, I’m not so hot on the idea of found bacon. It could have been sitting in a street somewhere for all I know.
I’m also a little jealous that he found it first.
Well, I have the advantage on this one, since I had weight loss surgery (about two and a half years ago) that re-arranged my intestines in such a way that I don’t absorb about 80% of the fat that I eat.
In fact, if I don’t eat enough fat, I gain weight and tend towards constipation. . .
my husband, OTOH, has no such edge. 
Rally’s recently had a wonderful sammich - the Bacon Philly Cheeseburger. It had a burger, philly style meat piled high, cheese and topped off w/bacon. Heart attack just ordering it. But they don’t have it anymore. 
Just today, I called a place asking what soups they had that day, got the traditional list (clam chowder, broccoli w/cheese, chicken noodle) then he said “bacon”… wait - you have bacon soup?!?!, but sad to say, no, he read it wrong, it was potato w/bacon. Probly pretty ok, but still
Then you’re looking at the wrong pictures. The Bacon Explosion in the OP does not contain cheese, and I don’t notice any sort of “oozing”. Maybe you clicked on Intergalactic Gladiator’s links, which is something else entirely.
When I posted, the link in the OP wasn’t working. Now I can see it and although it certainly isn’t oozing, there are faster ways to kill yourself than meat on top of meat on top of meat. Just sayin
Dopers are so Bacon aware we did this already, not that a bacon explosion should not be mentioned at every opportunity.
