Bacon-Wrapped Coca-Cola Chicken Breasts (provided by Celebrity Chef Myron Mixon)
Coca-Cola was born in Atlanta in 1886, when pharmacist Dr. John Stith Pemberton took his new creation to Jacobs' Pharmacy— where minutes after it was first sampled, it became a sensation.
What a lot of people outside of the South don't realize is that Coke can be more than a "delicious and refreshing" drink; it's a great ingredient to use in a marinade because it's sweet and because the carbonation can be useful in tenderizing meat.
It needs some balance, though, which is what the bacon does here: it adds a salty flavor and a crisp texture to the chicken. This dish is great for afternoon barbecues when you're chilling by the pool.
Serve it with your favorite potato salad.
Serves 2 to 4
INGREDIENTS:
4 small boneless, skinless chicken breasts
(preferably from small chickens, about 1 pound total)
1 12- ounce can Coca- Cola
1 medium white onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 cups Jack’s Old South Huney Muney Cluck Rub, or 1 recipe Basic Chicken Rub
8 thin slices smoked bacon

Chief Entertaining Officer Tim Laird offers you great options to make a memorable Sunday Brunch, including an unusual Bloody Mary.
Check out Tim's food & drink ideas below!
Blood Mary Bar
For a fun Bloody Mary bar, set out a pitcher of your favorite Bloody Mary mix, my favorite is Bloody Kentucky (available at: http://bloodykentucky.com ). What is different about this mix is it tastes great vodka but it was developed to be enjoyed with bourbon too. Also set out any or all of the following garnishes and let your guests build their own cocktail.
Horseradish
Steak Sauce
Finely grated Parmesan or blue cheese
Celery salt and celery stalk
Pickled mushrooms
Pickled asparagus spears
Pickled green beans
Pickled green tomatoes
Olives stuffed with garlic or blue cheese
Cooked and peeled shrimp
Hot sauce
Jalapeño peppers
Pepper flakes
Balsamic vinegar
Lemon & lime wedges

My Macbook Pro laptop arrived safely. It shipped within three business days. It was interesting as I tracked its shipment via FedEx.
Yes, it's true, that Apple laptops originate from Shanghai, China. No, it's not Shanghai, Connecticut!

This tune is awesome: "Lazy Eye" from Silversun Pickups.
One of my favorite radio stations, KCRW 89.9 , played this song once and I finally found it on YouTube after hearing a short clip of it on KROQ.

I was surfing around the Internet on ways to implement media into a Content Management System such as this website -- and I came across this video from Bethany Baptist Church in the United Kingdom.
Besides the fact that Delirous has this awesome song, the camera work makes it 10 times better!
