Bacon Throwdown 2010

For the past 3 years, Hubby's family has held food competitions against the rest of the family.  (Except for me.  I went out in a blaze of glory last year, and I'm never competing again.)

This year's theme?

Bacon.

The competitors:

Steve

Patti

Stephen

Theresa

Braddy

The dishes:

Steve's Chocolate Bacon Truffles

Patti's Zippy Praline Bacon

Stephen's Bacon Sweet Rolls

Stephen's Pumpkin Bacon Donut Holes with Maple-infused Cream Cheese Icing

Theresa's Chocolate Pumpkin Banana Bread Sandwiches

Braddy's Bacon Donuts with Cream Cheese Icing

Two days of cooking, judging, and eating nothing but bacon:

The winning dish:

Stephen's Pumpkin Bacon Donut Holes with Maple-infused Cream Cheese Icing

The losing dish that should have won but didn't because someone wasn't judging fairly:
