It’s so cold outside, the saying goes, that lawyers have their hands in their own pockets.

We’ve got just the thing to warm you up.

Bacon, that ol’ space heater for your belly, is the tasty subject of our favorite new book, Bacon 24/7: Recipes for Curing, Smoking and Eating, on sale now.

Featuring drool-worthy photos by E.J. Armstrong, Bacon 24/7 is a sizzling vat of greasy inspiration (just watch this excellent video) for your at-home cooking pleasure.

Inside: Bacon Varieties 101, best cooking methods and techniques to cure and smoke your own rashers at home. Because what else are you gonna do in this weather?

Spread over 172 pages, the cookbook offers up recipes for every hour of the day, from morning bacon cheddar biscuits to midday BLT mac and cheese to candied bacon s’mores for after-dark.

Pretty much any time bacon is relevant.

Which is … yep, all the time.
