Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Bacon
Cut the slab bacon into 1-inch cubes. Make sure to have uniform size for even cooking.
- 2
Marinate the Bacon
In a bowl, mix the bourbon, vanilla extract, brown sugar, black pepper, and salt until well combined. Add the bacon cubes and toss to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or overnight for best flavor.

Prepare the Skewers
Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.

Grill the Skewers
Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally until the bacon is crispy and caramelized. Ensure that the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

Serve
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve warm, drizzled with any leftover marinade if desired.
