Ingredients
- 4 strips thick applewood-smoked bacon
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon white truffle oil
- 4 quarts (approximately 16 cups) freshly popped corn (about ½ cup unpopped kernels)

Directions
- Cut the bacon crosswise into ¼-inch-thick strips. In a small skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until golden-brown, about 10 minutes.

- In a large bowl, pour the hot bacon mixture over the popcorn, stirring to coat evenly. Add the cheese, season with salt and serve immediately.
