The Baconator is not a sandwich. The Baconator is a man!

 

And what a man!
(If you’re impatient, go to 1′25″ for the bacony pay-off - chicken-fried bacon! WITH CREAM GRAVY!!)

    I shall begin saying a solemn prayer each night that some day, some how I make it to Snook Texas!

    That was disgusting. Mr. Baconator has got to be kidding with us with that accent. He should have someone pull his cheeks back so he can breathe too.

    Is there a recipe to chicken fried bacon? I gotta see about the wife making some.

    OK, I had four heart attacks just watching that.

    I bet the discarded grease from that place could keep a hippie’s biodiesel VW van on the road for a lifetime. Not that a hippie would survive 10 minutes in Snook…

    That video makes my heart ache….

    Next year I’m staging a Chicken Fried Bacon Strip Hunt. Leave the eggs to the Egg Man, goo goo g’joob and all that sort of sniggle-dee-blaggot.

    Somehow I’m not surprised Snook is out in Aggie territory. I love how they have cigarettes on the menu, as well. Now there’s the breakfast of champions - chicken-fried bacon and cigarettes . . . with coffee, of course.

    I hope that some time in the future we in Norway also will get steaks that is that big. To a reasonable price. The steaks I ate yesterday was the same size as a retro 3,5″ computer floppydisk.

    Chicken fried bacon = cheese stick = mushrooms!!

    That’s an equation I can get behind!

    Now, I am from Texas, and I can tell you I have never heard of a town called Snook. Is it in East or West Texas? I need to know.

    Reply from MikeP on March 23, 2008:

    Here it be: Snook, Texas. Looks to be northwest of Houston and consists of about 5 bacony, cholesterol-laden streets.

    Reply from MikeP on March 23, 2008:

    Here’s a satellite view of the restaurant in question.

    Think they have enough room to host a Rifftrax convention? If so, when should we book, and what should we call it?

    Reply from Beautiful Houndstooth on March 23, 2008:

    I’d sell a kidney to be at that convention!

    Reply from WallyKo on March 25, 2008:

    The name of the convention would obviously be the BaCon. Just need to come up with something for “ba” to stand for.

    Here it be: Snook, Texas. Looks like it’s northwest of Houston, and has about 5 streets. 5 crispy, cholesterol-laden, bacony streets.

    As Criswell always said,

    “My friend, can your heart stand the shocking facts about … CHICKEN-FRIED BACON WITH CREAM GRAVY?!?”

    NEEDS MORE SALT???

    Did anyone else notice how obese most everyone eating there was? Coincidence? I think not.

    Temperance. Moderation. Small portions. These terms mean nothing in Texas.

    Reply from AmandaGal on March 23, 2008:

    Have you ever noticed how obese everyone IN Texas is? It’s a pretty obese state.

    Reply from MSTJedi on March 24, 2008:

    You know, if my sausage-like Texan fingers weren’t too fat to hit the right keys, I’d reply about my offense at that.

    Hot damn, I guess hicks do contribute to society. Good for you, Snook, Texas.

    Chicken fried bacon? Bravo, sir! What do you suppose the combined weight of Snook, Texas is? I’m surprised the town hasn’t collapsed into a singularity by now.

    After watching this film, my ass and I have just a couple of things to say: PLLLLBBBTTT!& Thank Jesus for the makers of Subtle Butt.

    Now, will someone please open a blasted window and let some fresh air in this place.

    Mr. Baconator must be in a constant state of heart attack.

  • 24 SuperDragon on Mar 23, 2008 at 11:46 pm

    I’ll have the chicken fried bacon with extra gravy and a side of cigarettes. And do you think I could get another side of gravy for my cigarettes as well?

    Why stop at the chicken fried batter. Why not put ‘em through a coating of razorback lard, fry it in hydrogenated bacon oil, and pour a giant bowl of margarine on it.

    My prediction: Snook will become a medical term synonymous with a quintuple bypass surgery. That, or a liposuction term.

    Why stop at bacon? How about chicken fried lard balls? Mmmm, taste the heart disease!!

    BTW, I wonder what the hell “Texas Toothpicks” are? Sounds deliciously ironic, whatever it is…

    [Reply to this]

    Reply from AmandaGal on March 24, 2008:

    Texas toothpicks are deep fried slices of onion with jalapeƱos. Kind of like “onion fries” more so than onion rings.

    It’s also another term for a Bowie knife, but I assume the menu means the former.

    Here’s a recipe:

    I work at a cardiac hospital. I probably should really like chicken fried bacon. It is sure to keep me working, so all you folks try it today! Try it lots!

    Oh thank you for posting this. Saves us hopeless fatasses the shame of actually being seen in public consuming this stuff, heheh.

    Reserve a room for me, AmandaGal! :-D

  • 27 Cibernetico 2 on Mar 24, 2008 at 6:15 am

    If you look closely, the cigarettes little section on the menu is an advertisement. It’s not actual menu item. Putting cigarettes on menu would have to be breaking some kind of law.
