Matt Timms' annual "Bacon Takedown" tours have proven popular, especially in a city that can't get enough of the sweetest part of the pig like Chicago. Timms is now looking for participants for the fourth annual Bacon Takedown at Lincoln Hall 2-4 p.m. Sept. 14.

Hormel Black Label Bacon once again is the sponsor of the event and Timms will give 20 interested home cooks 15 pounds of the stuff to create knockout recipes. Anyone wishing to attend Bacon Takedown may purchase tickets at the Lincoln Hall website. If you want to throw your hat in the ring at participate, email Timms here.
