The ingredients couldn't be simpler - bacon, brown sugar, some ginger powder and maybe a little cayenne for heat.

Cut the bacon in half, coat both sides of each slice in the sugar mixture and put the slices on a broiler pan. Add a little more of the sugar on top and bake at 350°F for 18-20 minutes. Cool on a rack over some newspaper or paper towels.

(Be very careful when you take the bacon out of the oven. The mixture of hot grease and melted sugar would be very painful indeed.)

Sticky, sweet, spicy, crunchy, chewy, salty, smoky...
perfection.

Always make more than you think you'll need.


Haven't tried it yet but it sounds gooooooood

Elizabeth's in the Bywater in New Orleans does something similar. Thick bacon crusted with brown sugar and pecans. Everybody's crazy about it. I'm going to try the recipe, I like the idea of spicy gingery bacon.
