Best Bacon Skewers With Brown Sugar Glaze Recipes

BROWN SUGAR SMOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cut bacon into thirds and wrap each strip around a little sausage. Place the wrapped sausages on wooden skewers, several to a skewer. Arrange the skewers on a baking sheet and sprinkle them liberally with brown sugar.
• Bake until bacon is crisp and the brown sugar melted.

BROWN-SUGAR-GLAZED BACON

Steps:

• Position 1 rack in top third of oven and preheat to 400°F. Line large rimmed baking sheet with foil. Place large rack on lined baking sheet. Arrange bacon slices in single layer on rack. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over. Bake until bacon is crisp and glazed, 15 to 18 minutes. Cool 5 minutes and serve.

CURLY CANDIED BACON SKEWERS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Put a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Cut the bacon slices in half. Fold each half of the bacon in an "S" pattern upon itself a few times and thread each one onto a wooden skewer.
• Place the bacon skewers on the prepared wire rack.
• Combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle half of the sugar mixture on the bacon skewers.
• Bake for 20 minutes, then flip the skewers and sprinkle on some more of the sugar mixture. Cook for 20 minutes more.
• Remove the bacon skewers from the oven and flip them over. Taste one skewer. If desired, sprinkle a small amount of the remaining spice mixture on the bacon skewers.
• Serve the skewers just as they are or add on garnishes, such as olives and cherry tomatoes, before popping them in your cocktail!

BROWN SUGAR-CINNAMON BACON SKEWERS

Steps:

• Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
• Lay strips of bacon flat and rub with half the sugar mixture.
• Turn strips over and repeat with the remaining sugar mixture.
• Wrap each piece of bacon tightly around a skewer.
• Transfer to the broiler pan (do not use a cookie sheet, it will not work).
• Bake until crisp and a lovely brown, about 20-25 minutes. No oven temp was given in the book but I'd say @350 until golden.
• Transfer bacon to a wire rack.
• These can be served warm or at room temperature. Arrange in a napkin-lined basket for a nice presentation.

BACON SKEWERS WITH BROWN SUGAR GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Line a lipped baking sheet with foil. (Note: It's important that you use a lipped baking sheet.) Place a metal rack on bottom of the prepared baking sheet if desired.
• In a small mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, apple juice and cinnamon. Set aside. (The sugar will settle to become more liquid within a few minutes.)
• Take the bacon from the package and thread the bacon onto skewers. Place the bacon skewers evenly on the foiled-covered baking sheet. Use a spoon, fork or basting brush to spread a generous amount of the glaze onto both sides of the bacon skewers. (Make sure to get each side so that the whole bacon skewer is evenly covered with glaze.) Place the baking sheet in the oven.
• Bake for 20 min. or until the bacon is cooked to your liking. (Note that 20 min. should get the bacon skewers nice and crisped up.)
• Take the bacon skewers out of the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
• Serve on a platter or my favorite - in a vase as a centerpiece. Enjoy!

BACON BOURBON BRUSSELS SPROUT SKEWERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Combine the butter, brown sugar, salt, cayenne and bourbon in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisking constantly, cook until the butter has melted and the mixture has formed a smooth sauce, about 8 minutes.
• Spread the bacon out on a small baking sheet and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, just to begin to render the fat. Set aside.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the Brussels sprouts and simmer until just barely tender and still bright green, 5 minutes. Remove the Brussels sprouts to a baking sheet to cool slightly. Slice each Brussels sprout in half.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium heat, and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Assemble the skewers: Start by threading a Brussels sprout half onto a skewer, then add a piece of bacon, then another Brussels sprout, followed by another piece of bacon, and finishing with a Brussels sprout. Repeat in this way until all of the skewers are assembled. Brush the skewers lightly with bourbon glaze.
• Place the skewers on the prepared grill pan and grill, brushing them with glaze with every turn, until the bacon is beginning to crisp and the Brussels sprouts are starting to char, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove to a serving platter and serve warm, drizzled with any remaining glaze.

MOUTHWATERING BROWN SUGAR BACON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Arrange bacon on the baking sheet in a single layer; edges can touch or slightly overlap. Sprinkle brown sugar generously on top. Sprinkle pecans over the sugar.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned and glazed, 10 to 15 minutes.

BROWN SUGAR-GLAZED BACON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two 10-by-15-inch rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper; place a wire rack on top of each sheet. Arrange bacon in a single layer on the 2 racks. Evenly sprinkle with pepper and sugar.
• Bake until bacon is crisp and browned, rotating sheets halfway through, 30 to 35 minutes. Pat dry with paper towels.
