From the Pioneer Woman's blog - this apetizer dates back to 1981 and is a classic. Here's the link: http://tinyurl.com/4r6xz9

Categories     Pork

Time 2h30m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 (8 ounce) box Club crackers
1/2 lb parmesan cheese, and romano cheese blend (1 slightly teaspoon per cracker)
1 lb bacon, rashers cut in 1/2 (thin-sliced bacon, this will probably be more than you need)

Steps:

  • Begin by laying crackers on a cookie sheet, face up.
  • Now just spoon 1 teaspoon of cheese over each cracker. Repeat on each cracker until they're all covered.
  • Now it's time to assemble! Wrap 1/2 piece of bacon around each cracker -- being careful to completely cover the cracker. You want it to fit snugly, but don't stretch it too tight as you wrap (try not to have exposed ends).
  • Place the little delights on a baking sheet with a rack, and place the pan in a 250-degree oven for around 2 hours (yes, that's right! This is not a misprint! - anywhere from 1 1/2 hours to 2 hours is good - you want them to be quite 'dry').
  • Note: According to the Pioneer Woman - They're flavorful, crispy, and delicious. And the great thing about these is, you can make them way ahead of time, then store them in a large Ziploc in the freezer. Then, when you're ready to serve them, just thaw and warm in the oven for about 10 minutes.
  • Now I admit, there's really nothing nutritionally redemptive about these appetizers. The bacon fat seeps into both the cheese and the cracker, and they're positively loaded with calories.

Yield 35 one sleeve of crackers, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 (13 2/3 ounce) box Club crackers
1 lb of thinly sliced bacon
3/4 cup brown sugar or 3/4 cup parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Take a cracker and place a small spoon of brown sugar or Parmesan on top and then you wrap half the slice of bacon around the cracker.
  • Place the wrapped crakers on a baking sheet. I also put foil down first so the crackers are easier to remove.
  • Cook in the oven for 2 hours at 250 degrees.
  • Let them cool down for about 10 mins before trying to get out of the baking sheet. They can be delicate when they are hot and break easy.
  • You can store them in the freezer or just a container if going to eat sooner. A great appetizer to start off a nice dinner for any occasion.

Time 2h20m

Yield 36 crackers

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 sleeve country club-style crackers
3/4 cup grated Parmesan
1 pound thinly sliced bacon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
  • Lay the crackers face up on a large rack over a baking sheet (or broiler pan). Scoop about 1 teaspoon of the grated Parmesan onto each cracker. Cut the package of bacon in half (or cut pieces individually) and carefully, so the cheese doesn't fall off, wrap each cheese covered cracker with one half piece of bacon, completely covering the cracker. It should fit snugly around the cracker, but not be pulled too taut. Place the bacon-wrapped crackers onto the rack. Place the baking sheet in the oven for about 2 hours. Serve immediately or at room temperature!
