6 medium sweet potatoes
3 tbsp butter
Tony Chachere's Creole seasoning
1 lb. good bacon
box of toothpicks

Preheat oven to 350
Peel the sweet potatoes. Cut in half lengthwise, then cut each of the lengthwise pieces in thirds, so you have 6 pieces per potato.
Get a large baking pan. Microwave the butter, pour it into the pan, and toss the potato pieces in the pan until they are coated with butter. Sprinkle the Tony Chachere's seasoning liberally on the pieces.
Cut your one lb of bacon strips in half. Wrap each piece of potato with bacon and affix with a toothpick.
Bake 30 minutes, take the pan out of the oven and turn each potato piece. Then continue to cook until the potatoes are tender and the bacon is crisp.

Note: Bacon prices are pretty high right now. But this is not the time for the salty puny cheap bacon, get at least a mid quality, it makes a difference in the finished dish.
 
Hope you had a delicious Thanksgiving!
I'm hoping it's tomorrow :ack2:
The kids and new grand baby are coming over. We're eating early (hence my cooking all day today) because they have several other family gatherings. Fortunately my sons have great appetites so I expect they will stuff themselves at each gathering.

I hope you have a terrific Thanksgiving also :)
