    Title: Bacon Apple Pie
    Categories: Pies, Desserts, Fruits, Pork
    Yield: 6 Servings

    Pastry for a 9" pie; store
    - bought OK
    3/4 c Packed brown sugar
    2 tb Cornstarch
    1 ts Ground cinnamon
    1/2 ts Fresh grated nutmeg
    1/2 ts Ground cardamom
    1/4 ts Ground cloves
    6 c Sliced peeled sweet apples;
    - 1/2" thick
    8 sl (to 12 sl) uncooked thick
    - cut applewood-smoked bacon

    Set oven @ 350ºF/175ºC.

    Place the pie shell on a sturdy baking sheet and set
    aside.

    In a large bowl, whisk the brown sugar, cornstarch,
    cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom and cloves together until
    blended. Add the apples and toss to coat. Dump the
    spiced apple slices into the pie shell, including any
    sugar and juices that have accumulated in the bowl.

    Weave the uncooked bacon on top of the pie filling,
    starting from the center and working your way out to the
    edges. For a lattice topping you should have an over-
    under pattern with 5 pieces going vertically and five
    pieces going horizontally. Trim the edges and pinch into
    the crust to seal.

    Cover pie with foil and bake in the middle of the oven
    for 1 hour. Remove cover. Continue baking for 15 minutes
    or until golden brown and bacon is crisp.

    Let pie cool for 1 hour before cutting.

    Makes a 9" pie (6 servings the way I cut it)

    Title: Ground Bacon Burger
    Categories: Pork, Vegetables, Herbs, Breads
    Yield: 4 Burgers

    2 lb Uncooked bacon
    1/2 lb Bacon; cooked, fine chopped
    2 tb Your favourite BBQ dry rub
    2 c Shredded iceberg lettuce
    2 lg Tomatoes; sliced
    BBQ sauce; optional
    4 Kaiser rolls; split, lightly
    - toasted

    ADDITIONAL TOOLS: Stand mixer w/meat grinder attachment
    or food processor

    Prepare grill for medium-high heat cooking,
    approximately 400oF/205oC.

    Rough chop the uncooked bacon and place in the freezer
    for approximately 15 minutes until it begins to firm but
    hasn't frozen through. Once partially frozen, feed it
    through the grinder attachment of a stand mixer or place
    in a food processor and roughly chop.

    Once the bacon has been properly ground, gently mix in
    the chopped cooked bacon then form into 4 burger
    patties. Season patties lightly on both sides with BBQ
    dry rub seasoning.

    Place patties on the grill and cook until they reach a
    minimum internal temperature of 160oF/71oC. Remove the
    burger patties from the grill. Assemble burgers by
    spreading BBQ sauce or Mayonnaise on the buns, place
    patty on the bottom bun, followed by shredded iceberg
    lettuce, and 2-3 slices of tomatoes. Add the top bun
    and serve immediately.

    UDD NOTE: A nice slice of Cheddar or Colby cheese is a
    nice touch. Pepper jack, too.
