Way to go, Texas, you now have your own novelty beer and bacon milkshake.Levys Restaurants and the Texas Motor Speedway have partnered to create the Shake 'n Bacon Brew, a milkshake made with Blue Bell vanilla ice cream, Rahr & Sons Ugly Pug Black Lager, bacon-infused maple syrup, whipped cream, and a bacon garnish. The drink will only be available at the Speedway in Fort Worth, TX from October 31 - November 3 in honor of the AAA Texas 500 NASCAR tripleheader race weekend, so get to it. Who knows, maybe beer and bacon milkshakes are the new Cronut Concrete? Below, a look at how the novelty drink is made and the press release:

I don't know if this has been posted yet, but the Bass Pro Shops bacon jerky is seriously good shit!

I've only tried the maple glazed, but I'm betting the hickory smoked is just as good.  This stuff is addictive.  Plus, for the first time in 17 years living in Cayman, I've actually found something - anything - that is cheaper here than in the US.  Must be a mis-pricing situation, but a 3 oz. pack here is only $2.39 KYD = $2.99 USD, whereas the US price seems to be $5.99.  

 

The typical item that cost $5.99 USD would be priced at $7.50 KYD (or $8.99 USD) or more... the difference attributable to freight, insurance, import duty, and greed (from the lack of competition), the greatest of which is greed.  Think I'm going to buy out their inventory!
