OK this is a famous comfort food of Elvis's. Trying to find the definitive recipe has proven surprisingly hard. Some suggests the addition of bananas which i cannot disprove. However, after seeing an episode of "Spicks and Specks" a local music quiz show, my wife and i decided to try it.
So as the legend goes, Its a cob of bread (sometimes two), a jar of peanut butter, a jar of strawberry jam (jelly) and a pound of bacon!
What we will be trying is three rashes of short bacon in between two slices of white toast, spread with peanut butter and strawberry jam (jelly) cut in half.
Pause while we make it!
OK here is the verdict!
I think spreading the peanut butter on both sides of the toast overpowers all other flavours...however, both Kylie and I agree it is not offensive at all, although very sweet for a savoury snack.
I think our American friends used to the peanut and jam (jelly) combination will love it, and obviously everything tastes better with bacon!
Recommendation: Try it in moderation. The taste is sweet but savoury. Just try and avoid the two cobs Elvis used to eat at exactly 10 pm each night, which contributed to the 94,000 calories per day!
Just Wow!
