It’s International Bacon Day!
And who wouldn’t want to celebrate everyone’s favorite meat candy?!
So, put on your stretchy pants and check out this list of places to eat bacon in Pittsburgh:
Sinful Sweets (Cultural District): Here you can find a yummy blend of sweet and savory with their chocolate-covered bacon. It’s literally a whole strip of bacon dipped in your choice of milk or dark chocolate.
Harris Grill (Shadyside): Every Tuesday night is bacon night here! In the evening, you can sit at the bar, have a cocktail and treat yourself to unlimited baskets of bacon. Perfect for the bacon purist!
Primanti Bros. (Strip District): Eat bacon the Pittsburgh way! Instead of going with your regular meat choice, try a bacon and cheese sammich with all that French fry and cole slaw goodness.
Butcher & The Rye (Downtown): Here you can try “bacon” the fancy way. On the menu it’s literally called “pig candy” and it melts in your mouth. You get a thick chunk of pork belly with apple kim chi, miso caramel and cilantro. It’s a perfect blend of flavors.
Pierogies Plus (McKees Rocks): This iconic pierogie shop will make you bacon pierogies as long as you notify them two days in advance. What better way to eat bacon than in a soft dumpling shell and soaked in butter?
