BACON GUINNESS 
BROWNIES

Picture

INGREDIENTS 
  • 6 strips of bacon
  • 1 stick of butter
  • 2/3 C sugar
  • 1 C Hersey's Milk Chocolate Chips
  • 1/3 cocoa powder
  • 1/2 C of Guinness Beer
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 C flour
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • Crisco
Picture
****An 8: or 10" skillet can be used. Skillet size will effect baking time.

Picture



Fry the bacon over Medium/Low heat. Once cooked to the desired doneness, remove the bacon strips from the pan and onto a paper towel to drain. Chop into pieces once cooled. 

Picture
KAMADO SETUP

Set up your Kamado for indirect cooking. Target tempo is 375F. Allow your Kamado cooker to cook approx. 30 min to burn off any residual drippings or smoking agents. "Clear" smoke is required.
Picture



Using a whisk, beat the eggs. Once beaten, mix in the sugar and beer. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder and combine.

Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the chocolate chips. Continue stirring until smooth. Continually stirring will keep the chocolate from burning.

Combine the bacon and dry ingredients with the wet ingredients and mix together. It is important not to over mix. Over mixing will make the brownie more cake like. 


Coat the cast iron skillet with Crisco. I use butter flavored Crisco when baking, but not required. Pour the brownie batter into the skillet. Using the handle, shake the skillet gently to even out the batter. 




Picture

Add the skillet to the grill once the Kamado has reached the target temperature and there is "clear smoke". Cook time will range depending on skillet size, but the goal is approx. 20-25 minutes. Rotate the skillet halfway through the bake to ensure it is cooking evenly.

Just like any other baking, use toothpicks to determine doneness. I prefer more of a gooey brownie so the picture to the right is done for me. Bake to your liking. 
Picture

Once baked, allow the brownie to cool for approx 10-15 minutes before serving. 
This is more of a setting process. 
(Don't worry, the cast iron skillet will retain heat and will keep the brownie warm) 


Serve and enjoy! A scoop of vanilla ice cream would pair well with this dessert.
