Who put their bacon on my chocolate?
This past weekend, after depleting my bbq , I felt the need to dig more pig. I gathered up two of my favorite things and whipped up a grilled sandwich combo; chocolate and bacon on sourdough.
I like to keep recipes simple and you’ll find this easy to prepare. I used “foodie” ingredients and, depending on your locale, you may or may not encounter difficulty in locating these specific brands. Nonetheless, you should be able to find suitable replacements for this easy-to-make and satisfying diversion.
- Butter two slices of sourdough bread. I used Life in Provence butter with sea salt.
- 1-2 oz. chocolate square. I used Scharffenberger 41% Cacao Milk Chocolate. Next time, I’ll use 70% bittersweet.
- Four slices of cooked bacon. I used Niman Ranch Applewood Smoked Bacon, an uncured, thick sliced bacon.
- Put chocolate and bacon on sourdough bread and cook like a grilled cheese sandwich. In order to get a nice melted chocolate, I used a low heat setting.
You could use this sandwich as a cookout dessert or appetizer. Certainly, your guests will revel in the novelty of a chocolate and bacon sandwich. Otherwise, this bad boy makes a great midnight snack.
