Seems like my husband feels like bacon every other Tuesday of month. Fine with me, after all, bacon's one of my favoritest non-floral scents. Very good and made for Everyday Is A Holiday.

Yuuuummy stuff! I added a touch of cayenne that gave it a nice zing. LOVED THIS!!!

Amazing this seems to be the latest new thing. I've been making it for years, we call it Pig Candy in the smoking world. I mix brown sugar and some ground red Hatch chile pepper, coat the slices of bacon and put them in my smoker. Good eats Maynard!!!

Love me some candied bacon! ;-) The cumin is a very interesting flavor with the brown sugar and bacon, and one that I/we enjoyed very much! I'll certainly be putting this in my 'candied bacon' rotation! Thanks for sharing, breezermom!

What can I say but YUMMY! So simple and taste awesome. I made a chicken Quesadilla with this seasoned bacon it added a great taste to this item. Made for your win in the 2010 Foot Ball Pool week 15.
