Don't close the thread yet, just bear with me people.
So we decided to have a fish fry last weekend and finally utilize the little baby fryer my buddie's GF bought. Armed with cod, cat, and even some shrimp we managed to whip up quite a meal (that everyone regret the next day). After 3 or 4 pounds of fish and many more pounds of drinks we decide to see what we can fry.
There's [bacon] in the fridge!!
Just [bacon]? What else?
Long story short, here's the recipe and I assure you it's worth it.
1- Take a strip of [bacon] and lay it flat on whatever surface.
2-Coat one entire side of [bacon] in peanut butter. Crunchy or smooth, doesn't matter. We used crunchy and the penuts ended up floating around in the oil.
3-Roll from one end to another and skewer with a tooth pick (we didn't have toothpicks so we cut the head off of matches and used those)
4- Fry. I don't remember how long or at what temp. I was drunk. Thank you Woodford Reserve
Before you try and consider the health ramifications of frying [bacon], just think about how bad [bacon] is in the first place, not to mention sizzling in it's own grease is pretty much frying it anyway. You're just adding some tasty peanutty flava.
You're welcome
peanut = legume. legume = fruit pod. fruit pod = fruit.
the fruit balances out the bacon, and therefore this must be healthy. got ur proteins and fruits...superfood? i think so.
So have you tried it sober yet...or is your only recollection of this culinary wonder from when you were shit faced? [laugh]

You know, that's a good point :) Me and a friend had actually talked about a bacon/ peanut butter/ asparagus combination as we've been on a grilled asparagus kick lately. I think that may have prompted the whole thing subliminally :)
beergoggles have done worse things for people I suppose.
Is your real name Homer?
Anyway, I [bow_down] to you.

Not sure about the asparagus. I think chicken would be the way to go.

Yeah, some just fry bacon, whereas, when *I* find myself stirring from sleep and stickily rolling over to meet the woman who somehow morphed from Megan Fox at 2am to Rosie O'Donnell's fatter sister who just got released from the facial burn ward at 7am I have no recourse other than giving a fake name and hoping that it's just the sheet twisted around my ankle and not the same tether her handler uses to restrain the daily dinner goat.

Nice! [bow_down]
I'm definitely taking bacon to the turkey fry this year.
Want something else that's full of awesomeness? Once the turkey is done, drop in a dozen brats. I'm sure it's been done before, but that was my bright idea that night (yes drunk) and it was full of deliciousness.
mmm maybe a bacon wrapped brat [drink]
[bacon] and peanut butter I would definitly hit that [thumbsup]

And that may be the worst thing I've ever heard. But hey, at least it was Rosie O'Donnel and not Rosanne Barr who basically looks like she got hit in the face with a sock full of hot nickels.
TTIUWOP
of the fatter sister or the fried [bacon]?
Update!!
We grilled over the weekend and tried the asparagus thing (didn't have any Chicken) and it turned out really well. I bascally slathered the peanut butter on the same way, then just spiraled it around the asparagus and toseed it on the grill. I used pepper bacon (the shit was caked on) so some people di dn't care for the "spice" but I love peper and spice so it was perfect. The asparagus was done pretty well too so it was tender with a bit o crunch. I think chicken is in order next time.
