When you're furloughed in Frisco, you go to Pop's for bacon night

Yes, that's right: bacon. Every Monday night, Pop's hosts bacon night, where Tuffy, the bartender (pictured below), slings not only drinks, but crispy, salty, little slabs of pork. Here's the lowdown on the pork: before coming to work every Monday, Tuffy purchases and prepares 3 pounds of bacon. It takes him 45 minutes to cook it (multiple batches, of course) and the bacon arrives at Pop's around 9 pm.

Although the bacon's hot at 9 pm (and Tuffy recommends arriving at the bar around then for optimal bacon consumption), we showed up just in time to eat the rest of that night's bacon, which was good even though it was cold. Mmmm....nitrates.


The other great thing about Pop's is that it's cheap. Here's a list of the daily specials. Note the Monday night special, of which Hallie took advantage.

We'll see you next week!

Thanks for coming in. Hope the hangovers weren't too bad today. But then again, it's not like you had anything to do ;)

Tuffy, you're breaking my heart! So excited that you stopped by the blog. We'll see you on Monday night again sometime soon!

Oh shit bacon would go MIGHTY well with an ice cold, 2 dollar (crappy?) gin and tonic
