Steps:
- In a medium skillet, fry the bacon slices until slightly crisp. Drain on paper towels and set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, buttermilk, sour cream and garlic. Add the vinegar, Worcestershire, salt, pepper and cayenne and whisk until the mixture is totally smooth.
- Chop up the bacon into pieces. Cut the iceberg in half right through the middle, then cut the halves into wedges.
- Spoon a good amount of the dressing over each wedge so that it drips down the sides, then sprinkle on the cheese and bacon.
BARBECUE BACON WEDGE SALAD WITH GRILLED CORN
Steps:
- For the corn: Preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Rub the oil on the corn on the prepared baking sheet. Broil the corn, turning every few minutes, until charred on all sides, about 10 minutes. Remove the corn and let it cool slightly, then cut the kernels from the cob and set aside; discard the cob.
- For the bacon: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Mix the barbecue sauce, vinegar and sugar in a small bowl. Put the bacon on the prepared baking sheet and brush with a layer of the sauce. Bake, flipping and basting with more sauce every 10 minutes, until the bacon is cooked through and juicy and the sauce is sticky and dark, 45 to 55 minutes. Cut the bacon in half crosswise to yield 4 pieces.
- To assemble the salad: Arrange the wedges of lettuce on a large platter. Add the tomatoes, corn and bacon around the wedges. Season the lettuce and tomatoes with salt. Top with coarsely ground pepper. Spoon the dressing over the lettuce wedges and top with the pickled onions. Serve immediately.
- Mix the mayonnaise, buttermilk, vinegar, sugar and hot sauce in a medium bowl. Season with a pinch each of salt and pepper, then fold in the blue cheese, leaving a few lumps of cheese.
- Place the onions and peppercorns in a jar. Whisk the vinegars together with the sugar, salt and 1 cup water in a medium bowl until the sugar is dissolved. Pour over the onions and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours. The pickled onions will keep about 2 weeks in the fridge.

WEDGE SALADS WITH BACON AND BLUE CHEESE
We still order old-school wedge salads regularly when we eat out! The combo of cool crispy lettuce, smoky bacon and tangy blue cheese and tomatoes is kinda perfect. We wanted to do this dish one better by adding a hard-cooked egg for a little more protein and color.
