Blue Ribbon Bacon Tour
Thousands of pounds of bacon will be cooked up and served during the Blue Ribbon Bacon Tour at River Run, Keystone, Colorado, June 24 through 26, 2011.
You know, Road Trips Foodies, bacon (pronounced bey-kuhn) — the back and sides of the hog, salted, and dried or smoked, usually sliced thin and fried for food.
Whether you’re a bacon enthusiast or the significant other of a bacon connoisseur, you won’t want to miss this weekend celebration of, well, bacon that places bacon-inspired cuisine at your fingertips.
A Big Bacon Ticket ($30) gets you an event koozie, one free beer plus discounted beer all weekend after that freebie, one event hat and — best of all — unlimited bacon tasting at purveyor tents. Bacon Bucks (available in $5 increments) allow you to purchase samples from the purveyors and bacon-inspired cuisine from any of the 15 restaurant vendors.
