Recipe Introduction


"This is one of those recipes that you will wonder why you didn't try it sooner. Men especially go wild over this bacon, and this bacon will be a huge hit with them! Excellent to serve for a brunch or special occasion breakfast."



List of Ingredients




1/2 cup firmly-packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
1 pound thick-cut pork bacon



Recipe



In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, slowly cook bacon until bacon is lightly browned on edges but still flexible, turning over once, approximately 5 to 6 minutes total per batch (you'll probably have to do this in batches); drain the fat each time. Remove cooked bacon from the frying pan and place onto paper towels to soak up excess fat.

After draining fat from the frying pan for the last time, reduce heat to low and put all the bacon back into frying pan. Drizzle brown sugar and mustard mixture over bacon, tossing with a fork to coat. NOTE: Sugar melts very slowly and burns easily; reduce heat if necessary after sugar begins to caramelize. Remove from heat and transfer onto a serving platter.

NOTE: If the bacon slices touch each other on the serving platter, they will stick together.

Makes 6 to 8 servings.
