Oh MY!

I just had a whacky thought, maybe some bacon wrapped asparagus for dinner tonight, might do 3 or 4 stalks with bacon wrapped around them in a bundle... hmmm

Looks amazing, Steve.

I would think the bacon would overpower the delicate taste of the chanterelle. Unfortunately chant season is over around me, otherwise I'd give this a try. Maybe if the cinnabar chants start popping after the rains this week, I can try with one of those.

And Steve is 100% correct, home cured bacon is the best.

The chanterelles he used in the pictures were pretty large, I'm assuming that's why.

That's a cool site by the way, Mark, kudos to your friend.

Vernon is a serious mushroom hunter and outdoorsman. I use a lot of his ideas in cast iron cooking.

Lack of rain this summer stunted the growth of the chants I found. Only a few larger specimens. But now that I have a few spots to check, I’ll be looking again next year.

Ever try jowl bacon Adam?
