Brown Sugar Bacon
This is Brenda’s husband’s (John) absolute favorite food. He taught Brenda how to make it shortly after they married. When she’s preparing bacon for a recipe, she'll usually brown sugar at least one strip for him. It’s guaranteed to make John's day.
Brown Sugar Bacon
Preheat oven to 375F
Line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper
Arrange 1 lb bacon strips on parchment (okay if they touch)
Cook for 10 minutes
Pull pan from oven & flip each strip
Add to each strip, spreading over entire surface:
1 tsp brown sugar
Repeat for all strips
Return to oven, cook 10 minutes more
Crisp enough?? Brown sugar caramelized?? Remove from oven
Move bacon strips to a paper-towel-lined plate to cool (do not stack strips)
Pan: immediately drain grease* and strip parchment paper for quick cleanup
Brenda’s tips:
*Retain the bacon grease in a 1/2 pint jar and use to cook eggs
