Directions:
- Prepare mussels (wash, discard opened/broken, debeard, etc).
- Chop bacon into large cubes.
- Cook bacon in large stock pot until, stirring occasionally.
- Drain bacon fat and remove bacon, placing in a bowl to use later (i like to blot the oil with paper towel as well).
- Put onion and butter in stock pot and saute onion for a few minutes.
- Pour in beer, add bacon.
- Dump in mussels.
- Put a lid on the pot and let the mussels steam, I like to toss them every couple minutes with the lid on to keep in the steam.
- Mussells are done when they are open - approx 5 to 7 mins (don't eat the closed ones!) add the whipping cream and slowly add the cheese and stir to evenly distribute.
- Dish out into bowls, and pour broth overtop (soak it up with french bread or serve the mussels over pasta).
- Enjoy!
