Welcome to Bread Booze Bacon
Comfort Food for People Who Host.
If you love having people over but don’t want to stress about what’s on the table, you’re in the right place.
Bread Booze Bacon is all about comfort food that feels special enough for company but easy enough for everyday life. The kind of dinners people go back for seconds on. The kind of appetizers that disappear before you sit down. The kind of desserts that someone wants the recipe for before they leave.
And yes, there will be cocktails.
the MISSION
I believe hosting doesn’t have to be fancy. It just has to feel good.
I cook for the people in my life, and that joy is what this site is built on. The smells coming from the oven. The sound of a cork popping. The moment when everyone gathers around the table and digs in.
This is food meant to be shared.
Comfort food for holidays.
Easy dinners for casual get-togethers.
Party appetizers that make you look like you tried harder than you did.
Cocktails that turn a regular night into something worth remembering.
The goal? Make entertaining feel simple and damn delicious.
the PEOPLE
Hi. I’m Julie – cook, baker, cocktail nerd, and the one behind Bread Booze Bacon.
I’ve been cooking and baking for as long as I can remember, and I genuinely love feeding people. I’m obsessed with carbs, adore wine and Guinness, and believe chocolate chip cookies could fix just about anything.
I’m married to Mike (aka the head bartender). Between his years behind the bar and my kitchen experiments, our house has seen its fair share of food and drink testing. Some of my favorite recipes started as his requests.
We have two boys who happily volunteer as taste testers, and two basset hounds who specialize in floor cleanup.
In other words, this is a house that loves to host.
