BROWN SUGAR BACON
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Position racks in the top and bottom of the oven. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with foil and set cooling racks into the baking sheets.
- Using your fingers, crumble together the brown sugar, smoked paprika and several grinds of black pepper on a plate. Dredge the bacon on both sides in the brown sugar mixture, rubbing so the sugar adheres. Arrange the slices on the racks without touching.
- Bake until the bacon is crisp and caramelized, flipping the slices and rotating the baking sheets from top to bottom halfway through, about 20 minutes total. Let the slices cool on the racks, turning once or twice so they don't stick.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Poke holes all over the sweet potatoes with a fork and roast on a sheet for an hour, until tender. Set the aside to cool.
- In a medium saucepan, cook the bacon until crisp. Remove from the pan and set aside on a plate lined with a paper towel. Discard excess grease. In the same pan, toast chopped pecans over medium heat until they begin to turn slightly golden. Remove from the heat.
- When the bacon has cooled, chop. In a medium bowl combine the brown sugar, flour, toasted pecans, melted butter, fresh sage, and rosemary and stir in the chopped bacon.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Carefully peel the skins away from the flesh of the sweet potato, discarding the skins. Add the sweet potatoes to a stand mixer. Add in the brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, heavy cream, melted butter, eggs, and bourbon. Beat over medium high heat until combined. Season to taste with salt.
- Spoon the sweet potato mixture into a buttered 9x13 inch baking dish. Add the bacon pecan topping and transfer to the oven. Bake for 35-40 minutes. Enjoy!
