Mmm, porky.
Homer: Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. Lisa honey, are you saying you’re *never* going to eat any animal again? What about bacon?
Lisa: No.
Homer: Ham?
Lisa: No.
Homer: Pork chops?
Lisa: Dad! Those all come from the same animal!
Homer: [Chuckles] Yeah, right Lisa. A wonderful, magical animal.

This is very good, very easy, and very Homer Simpson.

that is my favorite quote ever from the simpsons! and so true – a magical animal! 🙂
OMG! That episode- and the one where Homer gets ‘Beef Poisoning’ from eating that ginormous steak… what a riot. I’ve never thought to do this with a pork tenderloin, I’ve always roasted it whole. Thanks for the idea!
God bless Laura Rebecca and Homer!(Did you have a big BBQ and not invite your neighbors too?) 🙂
yum yum yum. i love bacon!!
Because you don’t make friends with salad!That sounds awesome.
Oh my Laura! It’s like we’re speaking the same language. HAHA! I’ve been experimenting with pork as of late. Pork chops especially as they’ve been super cheap here! What an amazing dish you’ve prepared. I’ll have to surprise the family with it in the near future! Thanks for sharing ❤
I am so happy that all of you love pork, bacon, and Homer Simpson. 😀
Okay – HALLO! I love both pork and bacon, so this marriage is definetely on the to-do list!
Mmmmm.. bacony pork deliciousness (I hope that sounded like Homer?)
It’s just a little dirty. It’s still good, it’s still good! It’s just a little slimy, it’s still good, it’s still good! It’s just a little airborne, it’s still good, it’s still good!Love it.
Ah, television. Teacher. Mother. Secret lover.
Any recipe that starts with wrapping something in bacon has got to be good!
