1
Prepare the Bacon
Remove the applewood smoked bacon from its packaging and lay it out on a cutting board or a plate.
2
Optional Seasoning
If desired, sprinkle black pepper and brown sugar evenly over the bacon slices for added flavor. Drizzle maple syrup over the bacon if you prefer a sweeter taste.
3
Cook the Bacon
Preheat a skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the bacon strips in a single layer in the pan.
4
Fry the Bacon
Cook the bacon for about 5-7 minutes on one side, until it is crispy and browned. Flip the strips and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until the other side is also crispy.
5
Drain and Serve
Once cooked, use tongs to remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease. Serve warm.
