YUMMY Brown Sugar Bacon, oven baked

Brown sugar bacon -- it is addictive! Definitely a special treat for special occasions.
Baking it in the oven means that you save time and end up with nice crisp bacon. This is the way we always prepared vast amounts of bacon (without the brown sugar) at the Kirby House Restaurant.
Barry and I just prepared several trays full of bacon for a USD 435 PAT brunch; we baked it the night before, then just wrapped it in foil and added it to a warm oven for about 15 to 20 minutes on the day of the event. This definitely was a time saver and cut down on the mess on the day of the brunch.

Parchment paper -- definitely a necessity, especially when making sugared bacon as it prevents it from sticking and alleviates some of the mess.
  1. Spread bacon on a parchment lined baking sheet that has sides.
  2. Lightly sprinkle each slice with brown sugar.
    The brown sugar melts and runs over the bacon as it bakes, so I just use a minimum amount. 
  3. Place in a preheated 350° convection oven; increase temp to about 375° if your oven does not have a convection setting. 
  4. Bake for 12 minutes or more . . . watch it carefully as it can go from limp to very crisp in a matter of minutes. Note: Both time and temp are variable and dependent on your oven, and if you a using a regular setting, it will definitely take longer than 12 minutes.
  5. Remove from oven and drain bacon grease.
