Tips:

  • Choose high-quality bacon: Look for thick-cut bacon with good marbling. This will help ensure that the bacon is crispy and flavorful.
  • Use a heavy-duty baking sheet: This will help prevent the bacon from curling up and becoming unevenly cooked.
  • Line the baking sheet with parchment paper: This will make cleanup a breeze.
  • Cook the bacon at a low temperature: This will help prevent the bacon from burning and becoming tough.
  • Flip the bacon halfway through cooking: This will help ensure that the bacon is cooked evenly.
  • Drain the bacon on paper towels: This will help remove any excess grease.
  • Serve the bacon immediately: Candied bacon is best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.
