I think it's more of an internet phenomenon than a regional dish. Many years ago someone posted a step by step photographed guide to the making of what they called a "Bacon Explosion" - a fatty stuffed with cooked bacon and covered with a bacon weave. While it probably wasn't the first, it took the food sites by storm and made the entire smoked fatty thing just take off.
OLS even had a thread on here dedicated to them.
