Become the Talk of the Party
Everyone loves a good party. We love to socialize, mix, mingle, drink, eat, dance, and laugh. And what everyone secretly wants is to be THE guy or girl that introduces the rest of the group to some new dish… a flavor or ingredient or recipe they haven\’t tried before.
Who doesn\’t love the look of surprise on everyone\’s face when you introduce your new dish – that new flavour or ingredient – and everyone digs in. Skeptical at first and then increasingly excited.
When you do that, people talk. They\’ll say: \”I loved the party and I just loved what you brought!\”. They\’ll talk about it with their friends afterwards. And when the next party rolls around, they\’ll say, \”make sure you bring that dish again!\”
If you\’ve been searching for a great dish to offer your guests, a flavour or ingredient that they\’ve never had before, this could be it! It\’s a twist on a beloved food.
Everyone loves bacon – the taste and smell and sound of bacon is an entire experience. But they may not be eating a lot of bacon because of health reasons, social or religious reasons, or pork allergies. In fact, there are millions and millions of people around the world who do not eat bacon for at least one of these reasons.
You can change all that by introducing them to a familiar, beloved, coveted food that is has a brand new twist: Beef bacon. Beef bacon looks and smells and tastes like pork bacon, but it is made from beef, not pork! Because it\’s made from a cow, it is a superior alternative that is healthier, is an acceptable religious or social alternative to bacon, and pork allergy sufferers aren\’t allergic to it.
Bring a delicious, beef-bacon-filled recipe to your next party and then give the big \”reveal\” to everyone and watch their faces light up when you tell them that they didn\’t eat pork bacon at all, but rather an entirely new innovation – beef bacon!
Here\’s a great beef bacon recipe you can try:
