Jack invented these a few weeks back, and with Thanksgiving rolling up on us you might want to try making them and then feeling really grateful about what you’ve just done.
Take one half-strip of partially-cooked bacon and lay it around the inside of the cup of a muffin tin. Then take two half-strips of partially-cooked bacon and lay them in an X across the bottom of the cup. Bake at medium heat until brown. (Jack is asleep in bed next to me as I write this and I don’t want to wake him up to get exact numbers here, sorry.) While still in the tin, fill the bacon baskets with pureed pumpkin, sweet potatoes, acorn squash, or other delicious autumn melon. (Holy God, I’m tired, what the fuck is an “autumn melon”? I can’t believe I have to stay up and write more after this. Help.) Top with brown sugar, and then finish in the oven so the sugar bubbles a little. Cool. Stuff into face. Serves twelve, or six, depending on how your much your guests enjoy autumn melon.
You are clearly married to one of the greatest inventers of our time.
Autumn Melon had sit-down parts in a couple of John Holmes films. I’m going to try these at home.
Well, being Canadian, the Thanksgiving season has just passed, but I am going to use this recipe quite soon…
Thanks Jack!!
Ooh…Must make.
Little balls of delicious death.
This is quite possibly the most hilarious recipe ever. Thank you.
*faints*
I’m afraid that recipe would serve one and only one. ME.
Autumn melon!
i love autumn melon! also my stomach is now grumbling for these. i might make these in mini-muffin format and eat four little ones instead of two big one. that always makes me feel like i’ve outsmarted myself.
So the stickler in me must ask, “did you perhaps mean ‘winter squash’?” … and then the rest of me must eat it. That sounds amazing.
YES, but my brain was blunted. Thank you.
Yum!
Why does the front one look like it contains an anchovy? Recipe= Good! Anchovy=Horror!
Autumn Melon would make a good porn name or perhaps a band moniker.
