The unique dish, priced at $27.90, comes courtesy of Third Wave Cafe, a restaurant loved by many for its outlandish culinary creations.
Its latest, aptly named The Bacon Hills Hoist, features four thick cuts of bacon ‘pegged’ to a line which have been brushed with maple syrup before being grilled using a blow torch.
The meal comes served with four chunky cornbread chips that have been designed to soak up the juices of the bacon as it cooks – and there’s side serving of pickles.
