"It’s business as usual in Wisconsin, which produces the most and best cheese nationally, but the culture is growing in new ways. America’s Dairyland this month won 47 of 81 categories at the U.S. Championship Cheese Contest, whose 1,700 entries came from 30 states."

The Badger Poutine
by MacKenzie of Grilled Cheese Social
Serves 1
12 Wisconsin Cheese CurdsA handful of French fries, cooked1 1/2 tablespoons of brown gravy2 pats of unsalted butter2 slices of beer bread
Beer Bread1 room temp. dark beer3 cups of flour3 tablespoons of sugar1 pinch of saltCooking spray, for greasing pan
Combine all the beer bread ingredients, grease two loaf pans, distribute batter equally and bake for 35-45 minutes at 375 degrees F. Allow the bread to cool for about an hour before you make the grilled cheese.
Once the bread has cooled down, melt the two pats of butter in your pan over medium heat.
When the butter is about done melting, turn down the heat to medium-low and add the two pieces of beer bread directly on top of the butter. Gently press down and rub the pieces around to soak up all the butter. Then place a few Cheese Curds on each slice of bread and space them evenly apart. 
As the Cheese Curds start to melt, make sure to check the bottom of the bread to see that it’s not burning. It takes about 5 minutes.
Once the cheese has almost melted completely, you’ll be ready to add the French fries. Just stack ‘em evenly onto each slice. Carefully spoon the hot gravy on top of the French fries. The melted cheese sort of creates a gravy boundary, which will keep your bread from getting soggy.
At this point, the bread should be crispy and golden so you’ll want to gently take the pieces of bread out of the skillet and smush them together.

Better with age: Overlooked in cooler, decades-old Wisconsin cheddar going for $10 an ounce (via The Washington Post)

Probably going to reblog everything I see about this cheddar until I can taste some.

There’s a Wisconsin Cheese tumblr? I love the Internet.

Pfft. The Wisconsin state fair had chocolate-covered bacon on a stick.

Paul Ryan is from Wisconsin.

NO.

The Romney campaign has begun to prepare a vigorous effort in support of Paul Ryan if he is selected as Mitt Romney’s vice presidential pick—something now likely to happen soon. For example, GOP officials tell THE WEEKLY STANDARD that Wisconsin governor Scott Walker is among a group of Republicans who has been asked to be ready, in terms of his schedule and other practical preparations, to make the case publicly for a Romney-Ryan ticket as early as Saturday.

Have fun losing even harder than you were going to. Paul Ryan is too easy to pick apart. He’s like an overly ambitious 13-year-old boy who just got back from Bible camp, where one of his pals handed him a copy of Atlas Shrugged, and he didn’t really understand any of it but thinks he knows all the secrets to the world.

Montee Ball attacked by 5 men

Wisconsin senior running back Montee Ball was the victim of what police are calling an “unprovoked assault” early Wednesday in Madison, Wis.

Ball suffered head injuries after being attacked by five men near Wisconsin’s campus around 2:15 a.m. Wednesday. Witnesses told police the men knocked Ball to the ground and began kicking him. Ball, a 2011 Heisman Trophy finalist, was taken to a hospital. A team spokesman said Ball spent two hours in the hospital before he was released. It is not known if he can practice Monday when camp opens. Wisconsin opens the season Sept. 1 at home against Northern Iowa.

“My concern right now is for Montee’s health and well-being,” Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema said in a prepared statement. “Montee has been released from the hospital and is under the care and supervision of our sports medicine staff. We will continue to evaluate him as we approach the start of fall camp this weekend. I do expect Montee to make a full recovery.”

According to an incident report, Ball didn’t appear to know his attackers.

[…]

Police are looking at surveillance video both inside and outside some of the bars and establishments on University Ave.

In a post to his Twitter account Wednesday, Ball tried to assure his fans that he was OK.

“I appreciate the support and thank you for the concerns.I will be okay! See you guys in September! #WiscONsin,” he wrote.

As a college football fan, and, more specifically, a Badger fan, wishing the best for Montee.

The best part of having a coworker from Wisconsin is that we share a love for cheese curds that others just do not understand
