"Cooking Bacon on the Barrel of Your Gun Is the Most American Thing Ever" Um, WTF??

Ameri-cuhhhh! True patriots say the Pledge of Allegiance every morning, eat a giant meal of bacon and sausage, and hit the gun range for a quick session of target practice. (The best may even make time for a rousing performance of “The Star-Spangled Banner,” a couple of cheeseburgers made with domestic beef, a few more hours of gun-shootin’, and a dinner of Angus steak.)

But some highly resourceful ‘Mericans have decided to combine their loves of meat and firearms by inventing a method of cooking bacon … via gun.

Competitive shooter Dustin Ellermann released a video on March 3 that shows him wrapping uncooked bacon around the barrel of an M16 assault rifle and cooking it through by firing off about 90 rounds. “So much ‘Merica right now,” he whispers softly in its opening seconds.



He calls the method “The Gun Grill.” It takes about three minutes of shooting to cook the bacon to his standard of perfection, helped by a layer of foil that keeps it held tightly to the barrel. Shells fly furiously. Smoke wafts from the gun’s muzzle. A distinct sizzling noise emits.

(snip)

Viewers are delighted, lauding Ellerman as a “true American hero” and referring to the clip as “maybe the most American video ever.” BulletinEcho.com—a source for “Breaking News & Headlines From Alabama”—comments, “Someplace in the United States, a bald eagle is shedding a single tear, triumph over by the blessed beauty of this terrific nation. It can be because of American patriots like Dustin Ellermann that we continue to be the biggest region in the globe.”

I wonder how much it tastes of spent gunpowder and bluing, also? It can't be healthy to eat those. Electric Monk Mar 2015 #4

from convicted wife beaters.

And they get upset about being called ammosexuals, gun humpers and gun fetishists. Go figure.
