Intro
Inspired by watching an episode of Good Eats about making ice cream and slight inebriation, my brother, friends and I decided to make some ice cream using our favorite meaty meat - BACON. Now, I ain’t no fancy city chef, but I do know my way around bacon.
The recipe is pretty simple. (we were too excited about making the ice cream to take a pre-shot with all the ingredients laid out)
Ingredients
- 3 cups of heavy cream
- 1 cup milk
- 1 1/4 cups firmly packed dark brown sugar
- 4 egg yolks
- 1 pound bacon cooked until very crisp and finely chopped
Step 1
Combine cream, milk, and sugar in saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until hot and the sugar is completely dissolved, stirring occasionally.
Step 2
While the milk, cream, and sugar are having their fun, go ahead and cook up the bacon if you'd like. Yum.

Step 5
Step 6
Step 7
Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously, until the mixture coats the back of a wooden spoon. Do not let it boil.
Step 8
Pour mixture into a bowl and let it cool completely (toss in the fridge). Go watch TV or see a movie, this takes a while.
Step 9
Step 10
Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and follow the instructions for your model.
Step 11
Now lets serve up some yummy bacon ice cream - FOR BREAKFAST! I garnished mine with maple syrup. YUM-O! This may go great as a waffle topping. I'd make it again, but I think soft serve would be better for it. I'd suggest anyone else who tries it to leave it longer in the freezer.
