The Best Bacon Dish In Minnesota Has Now Been Crowned

A lot of people love bacon, and then some would eat bacon with every meal if they could. I think I fall somewhere in the middle, but I do admit that whenever I smell bacon cooking, I get an instant craving to eat it, even if I just ate.

I guess I'm not alone because studies have shown that bacon is extremely popular in America. In fact, it's considered a staple food eaten by most households, with the average person consuming nearly 18 pounds annually.

The bottom line is that bacon is a top pork product that is consistently being used beyond breakfast, as it's a great addition to burgers, salads, and even desserts, making it a beloved, versatile ingredient in the U.S.

So, now that we're hungry for bacon, where can we find the best dish in the state of Minnesota? Thankfully, a study was recently conducted to find the best bacon dishes in every state. The best in Minnesota is at a restaurant with three locations in the state.

The Best Bacon Dish In Minnesota

To find the best bacon dishes in America, the lucky team at LoveFood researched genuine user reviews, awards, and accolades. Then, and this part makes me really jealous, they sent their team across the country to try the countless bacon dishes.

After that amazing journey, they proclaimed that the best bacon dish in the entire state of Minnesota could be found at Granite City Brewery, which currently has locations in Eagan, Maple Grove, and St. Cloud.

The winner is the Millionaire's Bacon Burger. It's a half-pound of Granite City's signature beef blend, piled high with melted white cheddar cheese and a stack of spiced millionaire’s bacon,  an addictive version of candied bacon where the meaty strips are bathed in brown sugar and maple syrup, then spiced with pepper flakes and chili peppers.

I'm sure that this delectable choice will cause debates, with people claiming to have had a better bacon dish somewhere in Minnesota. Personally, I welcome this since it will only give us more bacon dishes to try! Bon Appétit!
