Crispy Bacon Squares
Bacon woven neatly together in a neat little package. Start bacon off in the oven and finish it up on the grill for a crisp, salty bundle of flavor. Wonderfully inventive to keep bacon together when on a sandwich, allowing for more bacon goodness in every bite. Especially great for BLT’s when it’s best to keep the bacon on the sandwich and not in your lap!
Who doesn’t love bacon?
Even if you say you don’t,
In your heart of hearts,
You know you do!
