If you’re a true blue Seinfeld fan, you know that Festivus  – the holiday for the rest of us – falls today.

It’s time to break out the Festivus pole, regale your guests with Feats of Strength and participate in the Airing of Grievances.

But first, the traditional meatloaf must be served. And enjoy it you will or you’ll be first on the list of grievances.

Here’s a fun meatloaf recipe that’s quick and easy. And, really, isn’t that in the spirit of Festivus? It’s not fancy. Just great.

Enjoy your Festivus celebration – and don’t pull anything during the Feats of Strength!

Bacon Hollandaise Sauce

Ingredients

• Egg yolks – 3
• Lemon juice – 1 ½ oz
• Reserved bacon fat (from hickory smoked bacon) – 7 oz
• Salt and pepper – to taste

Method

1. Melt bacon fat so that it is a liquid, but not hot.
2. Place egg yolks and lemon juice in a stainless steel bowl and whisk until frothy. Place metal bowl over a pot of simmering water and whisk constantly until it’s ribbony and has tripled in volume. It should have a light but firm consistency.
3. Remove from heat and very gradually add bacon fat until it is all incorporated.
4. Taste and adjust seasoning with lemon juice, salt and pepper.
5. It can be heated back up over a double boiler a little if needed, but don’t let it get any hotter than 140 degrees or it will break.
