That's the real name of a recipe - Bacon Explosion.
The end product looks like roadkill, and I say that informedly, having had a friend who at one point during his university life ate roadkill as part of a large and fairly deranged statement about man-environment-meat-cars-and-sustainability. Or somesuch. He was broke and so ate possums, frogs, cats and snakes he found on the roadside, turning his nose up at birds for reasons sanitary. Any lofty meaning he wanted to convey with this act was lost on his revolted audience. There may have been one or two alpaca-jumper wearing, earnest, off to South America friends who supported his dietary choice, but as far as I know no-one supported him enough to join him on his night-time trawls.
Anyway, Bacon Explosion looks like something my friend would've found on Highway One. It would take a very fast car driving over something that was very ugly in life to make a meal like this.
Here's the recipe, if that's the right word for this smashing together of dead things.
Oh, but before the how-to, know that Bacon Explosion, described by the New York Times as 'pig, pig and more pig' is one of the most popular recipes circulating on the internet right now (390,000 viewings before Christmas 2008). Evidently rolled up pig - offering a bumper 500 grams of fat - is just the centrepiece for a stylish modern dinner party.
So, putting aside my ethical, health and aesthetic judgements for a moment, here's the meat.
