Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare Baking Sheet

    Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Season the Bacon

    In a bowl, mix together brown sugar, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. If desired, add maple syrup and chili powder for extra flavor.

  2. 4

    Coat the Bacon

    Take each slice of bacon and generously coat both sides with the sugar mixture. Place the coated bacon on the wire rack.

  3. 5

    Bake the Bacon

    Bake the bacon in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until crispy and caramelized. Keep an eye on it towards the end to prevent burning.

Serving

  1. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Once done, remove the bacon from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes on the wire rack. Serve warm as a side dish or snack.
