OK, I fasted for two days before making the trek to Slater’s 50/50, because I knew that I would order the 50/50 Burger. The restaurant’s signature burger is a hamburger patty of 50% Sterling Silver ground beef, and 50% bacon, topped with an egg - sunny side up - avocado mash, pepper jack cheese and chipotle mayo served on white brioche. Amazing. Throw in a strong shake or two of bacon salt, and now you’re playing with house money!

Pretty damn delicious.

 

 

Then, on to just plain decadence. A warm Ghirardelli chocolate and chopped bacon brownie served à la mode. This was bliss. Even Wife ate some, so you know it was not your run-of-the-mill dessert.

 

 

I know…you’re thinking you’ve just put on two pounds staring at the photograph. That’s alright, you’re welcome to join me on another two-day fast, but can we please start the day after tomorrow?
