    This is an item that is becoming popular at the high end salad bars around Houston. surprisingly, not much on the internet about this.

    My recipe was simple. A thin coat of honey and then sprinkle brown sugar and cracked black pepper on the bacon. In oven on draining racks at 350 F for about 25 minutes, until crispy.

    Was wondering if anyone had their personal recipe or uses any of the seasoning shakers. It’s a great snack, seems to be shelf stable for at least three weeks (it’s never lasted longer), but looking for suggestions to improve it.

    Thanks

    Chef Sure sounds good, but bacon with anything sounds good.

      Chef I love your combo. The only item I’ve added to the brown sugar/black pepper mix is some sort of pepper powder (ancho, cayenne or other chili powder) for a little TASTE. It’s simple. People start devouring it saying: That’s a little hot and then go grab 3 more pieces. 🙂

        Chef I tried a maple seasoning and brown sugar prior to curing the bacon in the smokehouse. Turned out ok but it’s very hard to cook without the sugars burning in the pan. I’m going to hard your oven idea to see if that works better. Thx Chef!

          The only bacon candy I’ve had (and made) was using my smoker and Jeff Phillips’ recipe which includes his rub and real maple syrup, besides the brown sugar. Didn’t last more than two days. His recipes are found at www.smoking-meats.com. In fact, I haven’t had a bad experience from any of his recipes.

            Correction. It is www.smoking-meat.com. There is no “s” on the end of meat.

                    Bob Stehlik Hey Bob, thanks for asking. On Tuesday I graduated from one leg and a walker to two legs and a cane. Never thought that the change would be do tough. It’s been 3 days of getting used to using both legs and keeping my balance. Still not able to bend past 90 degrees for another 2 weeks. But, it’s nice to know the implant is doing well. It will be getting better one step at a time each day. Keep on making me jealous about not being able to make all the great stuff you guys create. It’s only a matter of time for me. Have a good rest of your day.

                            craigrice I don’t think a cure would give me the same product. The brown sugar and black pepper becomes a thicker coating on the outside of the bacon.

                              craigrice You’re very correct on the number of new items to try when I’m up and ready to go. Prioritizing will be just as difficult as sitting on the sidelines and seeing all this in front of me.

                                        Bob Stehlik No emergency YET. Just finished a Knob Creek Very Small Batch Bourbon 100 proof last night after my 2nd grandson was born by a midwife in Indiana yesterday. With the number of bottles in my arsenal, an emergency would not occur for at least another 3 months. I stocked up extremely well for the planned isolation.
