3 cups of Bisquick
16 oz of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
16 oz of bulk sausage

Mix and add just a few shots of water to bring together.

Put into 350 degree oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown

Your friends will LOVE it and the look of the sausage balls will invite lots of jokes.

Has anyone ever heard of “sausage balls”? Well these are similar, but are bars, not balls.

Bisquick (or any other biscuit mix)
Sliced almonds
cheddar, swiss, and parmesan cheeses
bacon (cooked to taste, and cut into small pieces or crumbled)
wild green onion
cream of mushroom soup

mix until a bit like moist cookie dough

flatten on a cookie sheet into bar form.

Bake at biscuit instructions on the box plus 5-10 mins.

sprinkle with more cheese and bacon 5 mins before removing.

Cut into bars, and serve with sour cream or ranch dip.

Iam not sure about the exection of it because I am not allowed to use our kitchen for such things (so Iam told anyway)

I had thought of calling it a monkeys fist and selling them from a stand at a nascar event but I am long on medicore ideas and short on initiative.

I might also add that bacon in this form is a perfect accompaniment to beer. Laugh if you want, but try it.. it’s salty and fatty and goes great. So, that might also make it the Ultimate Bar Snack.

1 to 2 cups of instant, unflavored oatmeal
1 to 2 cups crushed Wheat Nuts snacks
1/4 to 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 to 1/2 cup real maple syrup
1 egg white
1/4 to 1/2 half a bottle of a tasty porter style ale
perhaps 1/4 cup of whole wheat flour
several strips of bacon, fried until crisp and crumbled
reserved bacon grease

I’d probably start by combining the oatmeal, Wheat Nuts, sugar, and syrup in a work bowl, mixing by hand, then adding the egg white, bacon, and (cooled) bacon grease and mixing again. Then the tricky part. The idea here is to use the beer and flour mixture as a sort of replacement binder for the peanut butter, so I’d probably start by adding a little beer until the mixture looks pretty wet, then mix in the flour. Sort of a dark beer batter. Which is exactly the idea, because we’re trying to make something to drop in the fryer…which is the next step. So they need to be bound well enough by the egg, beer, and flour to be able to hold together through the frying process. So it will obviously require some trial and error to get it right. But I think it could be good. Maybe.

Mainly I just wanted to combine bacon, beer, and deep frying, though.
