Provided by Isabel Laessig

Categories     Breakfast and Brunch

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound thick-cut bacon
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp. cracked black pepper
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/2 Tbsp. crushed red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet pan with a silicone liner, parchment paper or foil. Lay the uncooked bacon sliced onto the pan. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, cracked black pepper, cayenne pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Stir to combine.
  • Sprinkle the sugar mixture over the bacon slices, fully coating all of the slices. Using your hands, gently pat the sugar down onto the slices of bacon.
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes or until brown and crispy. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Check at 30 minutes and if it isn't as crisp as you'd like, put it back in for the full 40.Carefully transfer the bacon from the baking sheet pan to a cooling rack and let cool for another 10 minutes.
  • Preheat air fryer to 400°F. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, pepper, cayenne pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix well.
  • Sprinkle mixture all over bacon and pat down.
  • Spray air fryer with olive oil, then add bacon and fry for 8 minutes, checking halfway through at 4 minutes to see if any of the bacon needs any rearranging to crisp up.
  • Serve and enjoy!

HOW TO MAKE CANDIED BACON



How to Make Candied Bacon image

Making candied bacon is one of those a-ha moments-why didn't I ever do this before? The magic happens in the oven and only takes half an hour. Eat it as is, crumble it over salad, or use it to garnish a Bloody Mary. We don't need to tell you what to do with bacon, right?

Categories     Breakfast     Brunch     Snack     How To     Make-ahead     Quick and Easy

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 3

12 strips bacon (not thick-cut, about one pound)
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • Store the bacon: Candied bacon can be kept in the fridge for a few days and reheats well in a skillet over low heat. I don't think candied bacon is worth freezing, although if you made a huge batch you absolutely could. You could just want to make sure to freeze the strips individually so they didn't stick together.

CANDIED BACON



Candied Bacon image

This is a really easy breakfast item because you can put it in the oven, set the timer and forget about it while you make everything else and pull it out just before sitting down so it's piping hot.

Categories     side-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

12 slices bacon, about 1/4-inch thick
Finely ground black pepper
1/3 cup light brown sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Put bacon slices in a bowl, season them with pepper and toss with the brown sugar. Cover a baking sheet with parchment or foil and arrange the bacon in a single layer on top. Sprinkle any sugar left in the bowl over the bacon. Top with another layer of parchment or foil and top it, squarely, with another baking sheet. The baking sheet will flatten the bacon as it cooks.
  • Place the tray in the center of the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Check the bacon by lifting the top tray and parchment. If it is not golden brown and fairly crispy, resist the temptation to turn up the oven temperature, and cook it for 10 to 15 minutes longer. Check it again. Keep in mind that when you remove the tray and transfer the bacon to a serving platter or individual plates, the bacon will "crisp" up a little more. Be patient!

Time 45m

Yield 1 pound (about 16 slices)

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 pound bacon
1 cup packed light brown sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment.
  • Separate the bacon into strips and blot each dry. Spread the sugar on a large plate. Press both sides of each bacon strip in the sugar. Arrange the coated bacon on the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle with any remaining sugar.
  • Bake the bacon for 15 minutes, turn the strips over and continue to bake until golden and glazed, 15 to 20 minutes more (it will still be pliable). Remove to a rack and let cool; the bacon will harden but it won't be super crispy.

BACON CANDY



Bacon Candy image

Im not sure where I got this recipe from, but have made it many many times. Kids LOVE this stuff! Its easy and doesn't take long if you have room on the smoker. We do a couple of BBQ cook-offs each year and entered this in the "open" catagory......we now get requests from judges and competitors to make more each year....LOL.

Categories     Pork

Time 1h40m

Yield 1 lb bacon, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 lb bacon
2 cups brown sugar
1 -2 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Put bacon side by side on foil.
  • Evenly spread out the brown sugar over the bacon untill you can barley see the bacon. More sugar may be needed.
  • Next sprinkle the red pepper flakes out evenly over the bacon and sugar.
  • Place each strip of bacon on the smoker and cook at 225 - 250 for 1.5 to 2 hours or untill all sugar is melted and turned clear and bacon is to desired doneness. Do NOT place foil with the bacon on the smoker. Bacon greese will ruin this if its not able to cook off. When done, CAREFULLY remove Pig Candy and let cool for a few minutes than enjoy.
  • I have also added chopped pecans instead of the red pepper flakes -- still very tastey!
