Double Down Bacon Burrito
Thick-cut, tender Pork Belly AND smoky strips of Nueske’s Bacon combine with a slather of creamy frijoles, tomato rice, cheese and tomatillo salsa for the lunch of a lifetime. Well, that might be overstating it. Oh, and if you’d like to Brunch-i-tize it, we’ll swap out the rice for some fluffy scrambled eggs! Served with fries or vinaigrette dressed greens.
And of course we always have these bacon-y specials:
Fried Green Tomato Sandwich with Bacon and Goat Cheese
Sliced, coated in breadcrumbs and fried to golden brown, green tomatoes soften and sweeten with cooking and become a special treat. Here they are teamed with smoky Nueske’s bacon, a slathering of goat cheese, lettuce and caper mayo to make a great summer sandwich. Served with fries or vinaigrette-dressed greens.
Spaghetti Carbonara
Steaming strands of spaghetti very lightly coated with tiny soft curds of egg and ricotta, accented with Nueske’s smoked bacon, peas, black pepper and Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. So good. Served with toast.
