Truly, there is no meat more delicious than thick-cut bacon, and no sweet no richer than pure, dark chocolate. What meat-and-sweet pairing could be more natural than to combine the two?
Today, I did it. I brought pig and chocolate together in a sweet and salty chocomeatgasm. On a stick.
Ingredients:
- 15 oz semi-sweet dark chocolate
- 4 oz white chocolate
- 15 strips of thick-cut bacon
- bamboo skewers
Preparation:
- Soak the bamboo skewers for a while, then skewer the bacon.
- Put them on a rack in a roasting pan for 30 minutes at 350F until crispy.
- Remove from oven and let them cool.
- Melt the dark chocolate and smear it liberally on the bacon until no meat is showing through.
- Put the skewers in the fridge until the chocolate sets.
- Melt the white chocolate and drizzle lightly over the dark chocolate.
- Put the skewers back in the fridge until it sets.
The result:
