Here is an ideal guacamole for all those game day parties.
Bacon adds that special touch to all kinds of dishes, and seems to particularly complement avocado. This is basically a classic guacamole enhanced with bacon.
I like using a hot chile for that spiciness. You can substitute jalapeno; it changes the character a bit, but both are good.
