Baconopolis! happens day after tomorrow folks.

Wednesday, August 25, 2010 to be exact, from 6 to 8pm at the Palace Ballroom.

For those who haven’t attended the past two years, Baconopolis! pays homage to the world’s greatest food, offering several bac-o-centric dishes ($25 per guest) along with a cash bar. And plenty of water.

This year’s speaker is Ari Weinzweig, whose new book Zingerman’s Guide to Better Bacon is the source of all eight recipes to be prepared for the event—including Dutch bacon and gouda potato salad, cheddar bacon scones, and apple bacon crisp. The meat comes from Seattle’s legendary Bavarian Meats.

Getcher tix here.
