Somebody Made a Deep Fried Doritos Locos Taco With Beer and Bacon Batter

No one quite understands the singular glory of good, cheap hangover food like Taco Bell, except maybe Nick from Dude Foods.

“You know what I love about Taco Bell being open until 2am?” he writes in his blog this morning, “You can sit at a bar drinking all night, come up with an idea like a Deep Fried Doritos Locos Taco and not have to wait until the next day to make one!”

Combining beer, flour, diced bacon and of course, the eponymous Cool Ranch DLT, Nick has created the greatest Taco Bell food made since, well, the DLT. With all that deliciously-bad-for-you junk in it, you’d almost need to be drunk before you could fully appreciate its true beauty.

Is it Friday yet?
