Made this to use with Cookgirl's Recipe#491611, and this was just perfect in it! I loved how crunchy this got once it was cooled off a bit. A couple of the slices started to get kind of dark on the bottom, but since I was crumbling the bacon anyhow, I just crumbled away the slightly burnt pieces and made my doggies very happy critters. Very good, thanks for posting! Made (indirectly ;-) ) for Culinary Quest I Family Picks

This met with mixed feelings in our house.The males of the house weren't impressed,whereas DD and I thought that it was lovely. I loved the sweet caramelisation of the sugars with the saltiness of the bacon.Delicious. It actually reminded me very much of a Chinese dried pork,that I am particularly partial to,except that this is a much easier recipe! Thanks Kit.Made for 1-2-3 Hits.

We used sugar free syrup and brown sugar Splenda to keep the sugar down. We always add a drop or 2 of maple flavoring when cooking bacon.

I fixed this tonight for our evening meal. The bacon turned out really GOOD and everyone liked it!!! This was easy to make and I would NOT change a thing on this recipe. I serve Fried Egg Sandwich Recipe #172980 with the bacon. Made for Zaar World Tour 2006

Excellent. Quick and simple. Make sure you watch carefully, this burns quickly because of the sugar (although once burned, they become a tasty dog treat) :oops: Watched the second batch better and they were perfect, sweet, salty and pungent. YUM.
