Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 10 strips thick-sliced bacon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, red pepper flakes and pepper.
  • Sprinkle the sugar mixture evenly over both sides of each bacon strip. Arrange the coated bacon slices in a single layer in the prepared baking sheet.
  • Cook until the bacon is golden brown, 15-17 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes. Use a paper towel to remove excess bacon grease. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Once your billionaire's bacon comes out of the oven, use tongs to transfer the cooked slices to a wire rack or cooling rack, or allow to cool right there in the pan. Either way, let sit for at least 10 minutes.
  • Maple syrup or honey can replace a portion of the sugar, if desired.
  • The bacon will stick to aluminum foil, so use parchment paper instead.
  • Billionaires bacon can get extra sticky after the bacon cools. Spray your parchment with cooking spray prior to baking to avoid sticky issues!
  • Large baking sheets such as this sheet pan are an absolute necessity for recipes like this one! You'll want all slices to fit on the pan without overlapping.
  • This is one of my new favorite ways to enjoy bacon in the morning! I mean, sugar, spicy and meat? Yes, please!
  • Create billionaire bacon twists by twisting the strips before putting them in the oven. Fun!
  • Add extra spice by including cayenne pepper in the brown sugar mixture.
