Ingredients

• 1 pound thick cut bacon
• 2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
• 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh ground black pepper
• 1 cup packed light brown sugar

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Place a wire rack on a foil lined baking sheet. Arrange the bacon on the wire rack and sprinkle with the cayenne pepper, crushed red pepper and black pepper. Lightly pat the brown sugar on top of the bacon to create a thin layer.
• Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 30-40 minutes or until the brown sugar has melted and the bacon is crisp. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes. Using tongs, transfer the bacon to a parchment lined baking sheet and allow to cool to room temperature. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature.
