00:00
So we took a half inch thick of bacon, cooked to perfection.
00:29
Dipped it in some cotton candy glaze.
00:32
Then we spun it in the cotton candy machine.
00:35
We're going to put a little torch on it.
00:36
We glaze it up a little bit more.
00:38
Who came up with it?
00:40
How do you invent something like this?
00:41
So this is, here's the thing, man.
00:42
There is, honestly, we have a concept called Russo's Fat Bacon.
00:45
Yeah.
00:46
We had that at Houston Live Stock Rodeo.
00:47
And we decided, you know, we need to do something really ridiculous and crazy.
00:50
So, first we started with doing the glaze.
00:54
And the glaze wasn't enough.
00:55
I said, you know what?
00:56
We got to go big.
00:58
I ordered a cotton candy machine.
00:59
We spun it.
01:00
And, man, the rest is history.
01:01
This thing became like a sensation.
01:03
So now we're just caramelizing it.
01:05
And so it really starts at a half inch thick.
01:08
Do we have any raw bacon here?
01:14
And now it's perfectly, now it's ready to eat.
01:16
So we just got it ready.
01:17
It's all glazed up and caramelized.
01:21
All right.
01:22
So Russo's Cotton Candy Bacon.
01:25
Cotton Candy Bacon.
01:26
This is something.
01:31
First of all, let me say, I got run out of the state of Iowa when I said I didn't love bacon.
01:35
On Casey's breakfast pizza, I was like, it's too bacon-y.
01:41
Too bacon-y.
01:42
Too bacon-y?
01:43
Too bacon-y.
01:44
You can get sausage, but bacon is the better one.
01:45
Would you?
01:46
Okay.
01:47
This is too much bacon.
01:48
I don't think that's true.
01:49
It reeks of bacon.
01:50
My mouth is bacon.
01:51
And people are coming at me with pitchforks.
01:52
So now I'm eating a straight bacon glazed cotton candy.
01:56
That's right.
01:57
Cotton candy bacon on a stick.
01:59
Half inch thick.
02:00
We then put it on a stick, 12 inches long, glaze it, cook it, and now.
02:05
How many of these can you eat until you're dead?
02:07
So, you know, I think that, listen, I've had people order four of them and eat four at one time.
02:14
Sat down, we have a bourbon glazed version of this that we do with Buffalo Trace.
02:18
That's incredible.
02:23
It's not what you expect.
02:26
I don't know what I expect.
02:27
It's crazy, right?
02:28
I have no idea what I expect.
02:29
It's sweet and savory, and you're like, what's going on?
02:36
If you can eat four of these.
02:38
It's Texas, brother.
02:40
If someone can eat four of these and not die, then they're a bigger man than I am.
02:45
If I ate one of these, I'd be on the floor.
02:47
It tastes like the cotton candy.
02:49
I actually thought I was going to hate it, to be totally honest.
02:51
I don't hate it.
02:53
I cannot have more than one bite of this, or I'd be done.
02:57
I'm going to give this.
02:59
I don't even know how to describe it.
03:01
The cotton candy comes through, and then it gets chewy and bacon-y, and then you get hit with the cotton candy.
03:07
It's almost like the glaze of a candy apple all in one.
03:12
You cannot have more than one bite of this.
03:14
Oh, come on, Dave.
03:16
If I had more than.
03:17
The crispy side.
03:18
This side right here?
03:19
Crispy, yeah, go, go.
03:25
I mean.
03:26
Come on, Dave.
03:27
You know it's a 9-1-9-2.
03:29
This guy's saying 9-1-9-1.
03:31
9-1 all day.
03:32
Yes.
03:33
Absolutely.
03:34
Stay here.
03:35
This is the best new original item I've had in three or four years.
03:40
Well, yes, I'm in for a long day.
03:42
I've been doing this for 30 years.
03:44
I'm going to go.
03:47
I'm going to go on like a survival scale, where if I had to eat this to live, I'd go a 6-4 survival scale.
03:54
I can't do this.
03:55
You have to be a Texas person to eat this.
03:58
This is.
03:59
This is a wild thing.
04:00
Very unique.
04:01
You'll see this all over fairs across the United States.
04:03
And you invented it?
04:04
I did.
04:08
So when you're dead, this is going to be in the dictionary.
04:10
It's going to be like this next year.
04:11
All right.
04:12
Unbelievable.
04:13
Well, thank you.
04:14
Thanks, man.
04:18
This is going to be a long-ass day.
04:21
We've got to roll with the whole crew.
04:23
We're waiting for the rest of our five or six.
04:25
So you can average.
04:26
Can we get a picture, Dave?
04:27
Yeah, of course.
04:28
Yeah, yeah.
04:43
All right.
04:44
All right.
04:45
All right.
