This is an ultra-quick recipe that's roughly based off of pasta cacio e pepe—the Roman dish of pasta tossed with Pecorino Romano and lots of black pepper. It's a late night, quick fill'er up specialty popular amongst the tight-jeaned Euro club crowd and the old folks alike. A cheaper, quicker, and easier version of the already super cheap, quick, and easy carbonara, if you will. More

We've all had those moments when everything clicks perfectly into place and your mind becomes clear: put the bacon in the pancakes. And adding the maple syrup to the batter is the logical next step. All you need is a big pot of coffee—and even more bacon and maple syrup—and brunch is on the table in less than half an hour. More

This week we're sharing what we consider to be April Bloomfield's greatest hits, many taken straight from the menu at The Spotted Pig. At the 'Pig, Bloomfield does drinking snacks right, and these Devils on Horseback are the ideal way to soak up whatever you're sipping. Bacon-wrapped prunes would be wonderful on their own but in typical Bloomfield fashion, she takes it a step further by plumping the prunes in tea and Armagnac, and stuffing them with tiny bits of tender poached pear. Bacon wrapped prunes would be wonderful on their own but in typical Bloomfield fashion, she takes it a step further by plumping the prunes in tea and Armagnac, and stuffing them with tiny bits of tender poached pear. These are the kind of snacks that go fast, doubling the recipe might be a good plan. More

When thinking about the recipe, I wanted to highlight its pub ties and decided to serve it atop a robust porter ale waffle rather than the classic toast. These waffles are generous with butter, giving them an incomparable crunch. Under the cover of thick, swarthy broiled and bubbling sauce lie pieces of smoky bacon. To balance the richness, I've slipped in thick slices of sweet tomatoes and bright sautéed scallions. More

This recipe was a lesson on the complexity of the loaded term "Canadian-bacon," where the maple-cured and smoked pork loin I made is just one of many possible interpretations. More

Whether it's on a burger or in a soufflé, cheese and bacon are a combination that is hard to tire of. Many people find soufflé daunting, but as long as whipping egg whites isn't a problem for you, then soufflé should be simple as well. More

Just use the pop-out Pillsbury cinnamon roll dough, fire up your waffle iron, pat the dough rounds down, press, and voilà! Cinnamon roll waffles. But I'm not done yet. The filling is cream cheese and confectioners' sugar quickly whipped up with crisp bacon strips and apples sautéed in the rendered fat with brown sugar and bourbon. I know, and, you're welcome. More

Anyone who grew up the Lithuanian parents or grandparents is probably familiar with this potato casserole. Similar to German kugel or potato babka from Belarus, it is a simple dish of grated potato, onions and bacon baked with eggs until crisp. Traditionally kugelis is served with applesauce or lingonberry preserves, but I like it topped with fried eggs, sour cream and scallions. More

Uncle Uber's Sammich Shop in Dallas's Deep Ellum neighborhood hasn't been open very long, but over the last few months they've managed to make some serious, er, sammiches. Nomenclature aside, you should order Uncle Uber's Goat Cheese and Bacon ($6.29). The applewood smoked bacon and slices of cucumber and avocado give it a fresh taste, almost reminiscent of a BLT, but then you have that thick, rich layer of goat cheese that makes it far more substantial than its BLT cousin.

Liver is polarizing; there aren't many people who kind-of like liver. You're either a lover or a hater, and if you're a lover there's no doubt you've had versions of this dish many times before. And if you're a hater, well, you're missing out. Liver and onions is a dish you can still find on many diner menus; the sweetness of the onions and the meatiness of the liver are a perfect combination. And adding some crisp fried potatoes and lovely thick cut bacon turn a humble lunch into a substantial supper. More
