Level: Easy
Serves: 4 servings
This is a really easy breakfast item because you can put it in the oven, set the timer and forget about it while you make
everything else and pull it out just before sitting down so it's piping hot.
Ingredients
12 slices bacon, about 1/4-inch thick
Finely ground black pepper
1/3 cup light brown sugar
Equipment: 2 baking sheets, preferably the same size
Directions
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
Put bacon slices in a bowl, season them with pepper and toss with the brown sugar. Cover a baking sheet with parchment or foil and arrange the bacon in a single layer on top. Sprinkle any sugar left in the bowl over the bacon. Top with another layer of parchment or foil and top it, squarely, with another baking sheet. The baking sheet will flatten the bacon as it cooks.
Place the tray in the center of the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Check the bacon by lifting the top tray and parchment. If it is not golden brown and fairly crispy, resist the temptation to turn up the oven temperature, and cook it for 10 to 15 minutes longer. Check it again. Keep in mind that when you remove the tray and transfer the bacon to a serving platter or individual plates, the bacon will "crisp" up a little more. Be patient!
Once again, thank you to Food Network for all of the fabulous recipes!

Good morning Roger D. Mucci
There are few foods that I like more than bacon...and yes, it must be crispy!
Lisa, this sounds so good but also so fattening......oh, no I'll be craving bacon now, I'm in trouble!
Lisa if it is bacon I am there. Bacon is one of my weakness!!!
I can eat anything bacon. Our menu is pretty well set for the game and we are trying to not go overboard.
Good morning Lisa. How many are you preparing for? Like the others recipes, this one sounds pretty amazing as well.
