Mike, the end product was great. I might add a bit more pepper than I did, but only because I like a bit of heat... maybe mix some cayenne, chipotle and ancho.
I made some about a week and a half ago. I like my bacon a little soft so I pulled my candy off a little early, I think I should have left it on about 20 min longer but it was good. just a little too soft.
Curt thanks for the update. Was that regular sliced bacon? Thats what im seeing in the photo.
Definately got to do some of that very soon.
Yours looks awesome, thanks for sharing.
Rick, I didn't really time it. I put it in a cold oven turned to 350, then once it hits temp, I turn it around every 4 minutes until it's crisp enough for my liking. The 4 minute thing is more to ensure it doesn't overcook than anything else. Make sure your vent is on near the end as it can smoke quite a bit.
I do regular bacon at 400, but lower it to 350 so the sugar doesn't burn. Most of it melts off, which is why I use so much.
