I'm saving this recipe here as I know when I need it again I'll have lost the snippet of paper I was given. Among my friends I'm know as the cooking friend. This is a saccotash drizzled with your favourite BBQ and peppered with nuggets of bacon. I am yet to make this, but rest assure it will be on my "to try" list.
