Sweet & Spicy Bacon

It’s really addictive. Just follow the method below for best results. 

You'll need: 
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar,
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper,
1/4 teaspoon black pepper,
1 pound thick cut bacon.    

Preheat oven to 350. Stir together sugar and peppers.  Put bacon in a single layer on large cookie sheet and rub just a tiny bit of the spiced sugar over it. Bake about 20 minutes. Turn slices over and sprinkle with rest of sugar mixture. Bake until done and crisp, about 15 minutes more and place on paper towels to drain.
