Announcing the 3rd Installment of the Bacon Gospel!!

The Ethical Butcher is incredibly excited to announce the first event of the Bacon Gospel: Bacon for the Sound on February 28th! Bacon for the Sound Meat Sweets is a BLT flight inspired by childhood favorites!

After the success of Bacon for Brooklyn and BCN/PDX, I am heading north to spread the good word of bacon. This will be the first of several events in the Seattle/Tacoma area. As a Tacoma native, it is a tremendous pleasure to launch this leg of the Bacon Gospel!

In addition to using local heritage pork, it is important to me that each leg of the Bacon Gospel reflects the culture of each location. In Brooklyn, I found it interesting to focus on the stories and personal inspirations of each person who requested their own flavor. In Portland, it was an honor to spotlight locally made spirits, coffee and tea. Tacoma, a blue collar port city now in the midst of a cultural revival, was the perfect location to open Bacon for the Sound. It also happens to be my hometown! This first event will be held in a very unique location-- a downtown Tacoma cookie factory that is a strong part of that revival. My aunt, owner of both Bite Me! Cookies and Friday's Cookies-- two delicious lines of cookies sold nationwide, has generously offered a great space for this fun night of bacon delights. Having a family member with a cookie factory really is as fortunate as one would imagine.

Of course, a location like this begs for an equally unique theme and I have met that demand with a menu that will speak to your sweet tooth in a whole new way!

All of the recipes for Meat Sweets are inspired by what else, cookies!! Just like BCN/PDX Sip and Swill, this will be a flight of 5 BLT's accompanied by salads and guests are invited to provide their own beverages. Here are the flavors of carnivorous confections to look forward to:
