Brown Sugar Bacon

A simple way to jazz-up the ordinary, you’ll be surprised at how easy it is to make this restaurant-style bacon at home. As a rule, bacon should be served abundantly, so feel free to double or triple this recipe as needed.

Ingredients

1 pkg bacon
2 Tbsp dark brown sugar, packed
1 tsp dried rosemary

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375F.
  2. Line one or two baking sheets completely with foil, wrapping excess over the edges. Place a cooling rack on each tray on top of the foil liner.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and rosemary. Set aside.
  4. In a single layer, arrange bacon slices on the prepared racks. Sprinkle bacon evenly with the brown sugar mixture and place in preheated oven. Bake roughly 20 minutes until bacon is crisp and caramelized. Serve warm or at room temperate, and best to make extra. Note: Keep an eye on the bacon as it bakes – everyone’s oven behaves a little differently, and sugar can go from caramelized to burned in a flash!
