Beat the butter, bacon fat, sugars, bourbon, and vanilla together in the bowl of a mixer until the sugar and butter are combined.

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each egg.
5
Beat in the flour mixture about 1/2 cup at a time. Beat in the chocolate chips and bacon bits.
6
Bake at 375u00b0F for 9-12 minutes or until desired level of golden brown. Let cool.
