Bourbon-Praline Bacon image

Yeah, that's not a misprint. This is a great, crunchy bacon dish with the flavor of bourbon and pralines. This is great as a brunch dish, or it can even be used as a garnish on a special dessert.

Time 30m

Yield 8 slices

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 slices smoked bacon (thick cut, or center cut)
3/4 cup Bourbon
1/4 cup brown sugar, plus
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup pecans (halves or pieces)
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or black pepper)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • In a 13 X 9 pan, mix the bourbon, vanilla and 1 T brown sugar. Add bacon slices, coating them in the liquid. Let them soak for 15 minutes (or up to 1 hour).
  • Meanwhile, pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees place an oven rack in the middle. Lightly grease a baking rack and place it on a foil-covered baking sheet.
  • Grind the pecans in a food processor or spice grinder. On a large plate or baking sheet, thoroughly mix the ground pecans with the cayenne pepper, cinnamon, and the remaining 1/4 C brown sugar (fingers work best).
  • One at a time, shake the excess liquid off the bacon slices, and lay them in the pecan mixture, pressing lightly with your fingertips to make the topping adhere. Flip the bacon and repeat on the other side. (In the middle of this process the topping may begin to cake up. Re-mix it with a fork if necessary). Lay each slice on the rack.
  • Bake on the middle rack for 20 minutes. Let cool slightly before removing from the rack. Serve warm or cooled -- and enjoy.

This bacon is disgusting. I threw it away after one bite.

I would not recommend this recipe. The bacon was bland and the praline coating was too hard.

This bacon is definitely not worth the money. It's not as good as I thought it would be.

I thought this bacon was just okay. The praline coating was a little too thick for my liking.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bacon didn't turn out as good as I hoped. It was a little too sweet for my taste.

This bacon is out of this world! The praline coating is sweet, salty, and crunchy, and the bourbon adds a subtle smoky flavor. It's the perfect appetizer or snack for any party.
