Chicken Fried Bacon
chicken fried bacon (with a side of cream gravy) | Originally uploaded by yi.
I had to take a day trip to Bryan, Texas and decided to stop by nearby Snook to feast on the famed Chicken Fried Bacon (CFB) at Sodolak's Original Country Inn. They are also famous for their steaks that you order by the pound and most are larger than your face.
Check out this video from Texas Country Reporter:
The CFB was surprisingly light and flaky; not greasy at all. It was served with a side of cream gravy for dipping which made the whole dish taste like breakfast. Delicious!

i'd love to know how much the chicken fried bacon cost -- to to see how much that's going for on the street nowadays. i'm not sure i could track it down in chicago.

I don't think I could track it down in NY either. It looks like an interesting meal though. Your entries make me want to eat.. ;_;

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!! OH MY, THE TASTE DIPPED IN THE CREAM GRAVY WAS FOOD OF THE GODS. PERFECT QUANTITY FOR TWO FOR AN APPETIZER. NOT AT ALL HEAVY (EXCEPT TO THE WAISTLINE) AND DESERVES GOING BACK AGAIN AND AGAIN. GOING TO TRY THE YUMMY LOOKING STEAKS NEXT VISIT (AS A SIDE TO THE CHICKEN FRIED BACON). WE ARE GOING TO TRY TO MAKE IT AT HOME.
