Crispy Fries with Bacon and Blue Cheese Sauce

frozen french fries (I recommend the Ore-Ida Extra Crispy Fast Food Fries, 12 ounces would be about half of the bag, as it is on the small size as far as bags of frozen fries go.)

pkg of bacon, cut into small pieces and cooked (about 4 strips, less if you prefer)

(Optional: Reserve about 1 tsp. of bacon grease for cooking with the garlic, shallots and butter)

shallot, finely diced

garlic, diced

unsalted butter

blue cheese, crumbled

milk

cracked black pepper

Salt and pepper
