at first i wasnt that thrilled but this is the kind of dish that tastes better the longer it sits. made it, put it in the fridge for a few hours and then popped it in the microwave before the block party started. it was GONE so fast and folks actually wanted to know who made it. so i had to give it 5 stars.

This recipe was not a success for me. I didn't like how it smelled or how it tasted. The mustard and BBQ sauce overwhelmed the other flavours and just didn't work for me. I'm not sure I can salvage this one, I may have to go with store bought now. I wasted all that lovely bacon too.
