BACON POPCORN!!!

2TBLSP Rendered Bacon Fat (dice up cooked bacon for later)
2 handfuls of kernels
1 large stainless steel mixing bowl
splatter guard
oven mitts

heat bacon fat in steel mixing bowl over med flame til it ripples, toss in all the kernels and start moving the bowl around. No need for salt as bacon has already provided it. I use the splatter guard instead of a pot lid to allow steam to escape (instead of making the popcorn chewy). Keep moving the kernels to prevent burning. (You could also toss in 3-4 kernels and wait for them to pop before adding the rest of the kernels). Once it starts popping, keep it moving. I've been told to turn the heat down to low, but I haven't had any problems as long as I keep it moving. Once the popping subsides, remove from heat, top with diced bacon and dig in!
