The Great Big Bacon Picnic

Are you a disciple of the "bacon makes everything better" gospel? Head to this second annual pork-focused food fest, where chefs and vendors like St. Anselm's Joe Carroll, Prime's Michael Bohlsen and Traif's Jason Marcus compete for the Boss Hog title while you feast on an all-you-can-eat spread including Oreo-bacon cookies, lobster-bacon spring rolls and bacon Bloody Marys. Cast your vote for the best pig dish, pop by the Bacon Bar to sample sliced swine (nine flavors represented last year), and get down to NOLA-meets-NYC tunes from the High & Mighty Brass Band.
