Candied Bacon
Bacon Salt Rim
Method
Candied Bacon Preparation
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare Baking Sheet
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Mix Sugar and Pepper
In a bowl, combine the brown sugar and black pepper.
Coat Bacon
Lay the bacon slices on the prepared baking sheet. Generously sprinkle the sugar and pepper mixture over both sides of each slice.
Bake Bacon
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, until the bacon is crispy and caramelized. Flip the bacon halfway through cooking for even cooking.
Cool Bacon
Once done, remove from the oven and let the bacon cool on a wire rack to allow the sugar to harden.
Bacon Salt Rim Preparation
Mix Bacon and Sea Salt
In a small bowl, mix the bacon salt and coarse sea salt until well combined.
Prepare Glasses
Take a glass and moisten the rim with a slice of cooked bacon or a bit of water.
Rim the Glass
Dip the moistened rim into the bacon salt mixture, ensuring it is well coated.
