All right, welcome to Great Day Live Out.

and music that's going to be happening
this weekend at the second annual Fox Fest.
I have Jared Fox Matthews here with us
to kind of give us a low down on that.
And then and then Robert Bacon s

This is one of the food trucks that will
be there. He is given us kind of a sample.

It's great. We have 3 stages.
Once one stage music goes off,
the other one kicks off.
We got some amazing food trucks here,

Everybody loves bacon,

It's morning and stop for bacon, right?
I feel like you've become the
restaurant man about town, righ?
Lulu food and drink.
Lulu on market kind of.
You have this magic touch with
with restaurants and with festis
and what kind of brings you joy
about this specific festival.
This one is great because you
know they did the St. Matthew S.
festival which was awesome and they let
me book the bands for that and t
was great and then Cove it happd
and they just haven't brought it back.
So last year we were sitting ard
is about two months till we we
decided we promoted in two mont.
But I said you know what let's o
ahead and just bring a festival back.
So I think my wife looked at me
like of course you're going to
do a festival in two months.
So and it worked. It worked. It
was great. We we had we had two
different stages so this one's a
little bit bigger but we had abt
2500 people come out so it was awesome.
It all supports Apron Inc whichs
an amazing organization that hes
out our service industry crowd u
know server falls down braces,
leg king pays the bills.
Apron's always there to help ou.
So we're we're excited to partnr
with them again and just you knw
feed some people and show them e
good music and some good times s
uplift the restaurant community so much.
So everybody loves Bacon is onef
those popular food trucks that s
back at Fox Fest again this yea.
Robert Bacon is here.
How you doing, Robert?
I'm doing pretty good yourself.
Well, you brought food.
We're very happy. Unfortunately
not enough for everybody. Yeah,
you're back again at this at Fox Fest
and you kind of have a sample of what
you're going to have there this weekend.
Yes, ma'am. I made a few of the items out
here and I got one in here I'm going to
display and go through the making of it.
First, what you're looking at
is your bacon wrapped hot dog.
Just on a toasted hot dog bun
put shredded cheese, onion,
and then I drizzle a little bitf
creamy aioli across the top of ,
give it a nice little pretty picture.
People eat with their eyes first so I
want to make sure the food looks really good.
Next up you have is a candy bacn
cheeseburger that's set up on a Hawaiian bun,
toasted third pound Patty,
2 slices of American cheese,
3 slices of candy bacon,
and then I put the Lt.
not Lt. but lettuce,
onion and a bread and butter pickle on that.
Next up is a pulled pork sandwi.
So once again on another Hawaiian bun.
It's a very simple mix,
just regular pulled pork candy,
bacon on it as well,
onion and pickle to top it.
And then one of my best ones
that I have out here is a fried
Green Tomato Bacon cheeseburger.
Once again on another Hawaiian ,
same burger Patty size,
has two slices of fried green tomatoes.
And then drizzled across the top is my
sriracha Mayo that we make in h.
That is so good.
By the way,
I tried it the last time when you were here.
That is so good. Yes, ma'am.
All right. And then then.
But wait, there's more, there's
more. So this is the beginning making
of my actual chicken bacon Taco.
So if you can take a look,
I weave my bacon into a humongos
sheet square and then when it's done,
cooked almost all the way completely through,
I'll cut a circle out of it and
then basically throw my my,
my shoot my marinated chicken.
I done forgot what I had in thee
because I had two of them actua.
So then this one afterwards,
I'm just going to throw a little
bit of lettuce on top of it,
then a little bit of shredded ce
and then some tomatoes on top.
And we're going to go with the topping
of just regular traditional sour cream.
But you can get this with that
creamy aioli that I make as wel.
That is tremendously well,
some people actually put
BBQ sauce on that too.
I've got a Sriracha honey and a
regular sweet BBQ sauce on that.
So this is one of my favorite items to make.
You have a lot there on the men.
And of course, because of the name too,
bacon is in everything.
Because who doesn't love bacon?
Because everybody loves
me. You're absolutely right.
My last name is bacon.
You can't love bacon without
loving me. So you got it
kind of probably created like an easy food.
Like, what am I going to do for a business?
Let me think about that.
There's not a bacon food truck out there.
So let me just jump on board with that.
What you're doing to you're kind
of elevating food a little bit
for that food truck experience.
Was that your goal?
Yes. I'm actually just trying
to give everybody's taste buds
a different touch of sweet,
spicy and touch the hearts of
people that do love bacon.
And you've you've been here to
WHS in great daylight before,
always connected to an
apron cause and giving back.
Why is that important to
you? Well, it's good question.
I really love putting my heart into my food.
I love to let people see what I'm about.
I love to get out with the LFT,
a Louisville Food Truck Associa,
and I just like to put my
heart out there. Really. You
do. Thank you so much.
We're going to sample
that a little bit, right.
Isn't that like that's why we le
the restaurant community here.
I know that's why you love it t.
Is that right there?
Is that we're just trying to
share our love with them.
When I walk up there and he
asked me what I want to think,
the answer is going to be. Yes.
So yeah, I'll take it all.
So looks amazing.
Well, you know, we're promoting.
This is coming up this weekend,
but we want to make sure
people know it's Saturday,
goes late, late into the mornin.
But what are the hours location
and do we need tickets?
