Meet the latest obsession sweeping through foodie feeds everywhere: Billionaire Bacon Twists. This isn’t your average breakfast side. It’s bacon elevated to a level of luxury. Sweet, spicy, and irresistibly crunchy, these twists are a must-try for your next breakfast get-together.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper
- 2 tablespoons black pepper
- Thick-cut slices of bacon
Instructions:
- In a bowl, mix together brown sugar, red pepper, and black pepper. Coat each of the bacon slices in the spice mixture and set aside.
- Next, take each slice of seasoned bacon and twist it tightly from end to end, creating a spiraled effect. The twist not only adds to the visual appeal but also helps to lock in the flavors as they cook.
- Place a cooling rack onto a baking sheet (to catch any drippings) and arrange your bacon twists on the rack. Preheat your smoker or oven to 400°F and carefully place the bacon inside. Cook for about 20 minutes, but keep an eye on them so they don’t char.
- Once done, remove the bacon twists from the smoker and let them rest on parchment paper for about 15 minutes, and enjoy!
