    Doubled the recipe. Mixed the glaze with the bacon in a bowl and let it sit 30 minutes. This was the second time I made it and this allows for better coverage on the strips of bacon. Also purchased thicker slab bacon from the butcher. Spraying the rack with pam and lining the baking dish with foil, makes for an easy clean up. Cooked the bacon for 20 min mid oven @ 400, then turned it and cooked for another 5-6 min watching carefully. My first batch got alittle too dark. As the bacon cools on the rack it develops a sheen and the glaze settles. Serving this at room temp or heating slightly before serving is delicious either way. One friend took the tray with the remaining 6 strips of bacon and refused to share!! She's a size 4.

    Wanted a fun bacon recipe for Christmas -- got RAVE reviews - my sister asked me to make a second batch. I would recommend spraying the cooling pan before cooking. Thanks for the recipe!!!

    I agree. Spray the wire rack before putting the bacon on but this is the ONLY way to serve bacon. Make more than you think too. We served it with a French toast recipe that is like custard inside and it was perfect. Add orange juice and you're done.

    wow! this is grreat! However i would spray the rack before putting the bacon on it to make it a little easier to clean. Other than that this is about as perfect as you can get!

    I couldn't believe how tasty this was. I made this for Father's Day brunch and it was a huge hit! I will make this again and again, but probably reserve it for special occasions because it is so rich and decadent. I decreased the cooking time to 18 minuted because the ends were starting to char a little, and that was perfect. As the bacon cooled it crisped nicely and the glaze thickened to perfection!

    Seriously... you CAN get addicted. I made this to try it out b/c it looked sooo good. I cannot believe how good this was! It's almost like bacon candy!! My husband loved it... then I had to let some friends try it! They all loved it! It took everything I had not to keep eating it! I had to leave some for someone else to try and I still snuck another piece for myself! *L* I couldn't help myself. And I think that Dijon mustard defnitely gives it that extra touch that you shouldn't leave out! At first I thought it should have been a little stiffer or crisper and I tried leaving them in longer and ended up burning them (I only made 4 slices to try it. I noticed they get stiffer/crisper when you let them sit out after cooking them. I had to try again and I am soo glad I did... it is fantastic and I can't wait to let some more people try it.

    Last night we had breakfast for dinner. I made Sandra Lee's recipe for French Toast & Brown Sugar Banana Syrup.

    I've been wanting to make Brown Sugar Bacon for quite a long time, but I didn't think my husband would like sweet bacon. We each took a bite of bacon & smiled. He exclaimed, "it's like candied bacon!"

    Thank you, thank you, thank you for this very easy and very yummy recipe! It was well worth the extra scrubbing my cooling rack needed this morning!

    I followed the recipe to a T, but once I opened the oven - it was smoking (bacon too thin - but still eatable. It was fantastic, but next time I'll either get thicker bacon or reduce the time to 15 or less.

    This is the best bacon you will ever eat. I used 2 lbs thick sliced bacon and still only 1/2 cup sugar and 1 T mustard and it was plenty. You don't want every piece completely coated or it will be way too sweet. I baked it about 30 minutes as my bacon was really thick. This was a great hit, everyone loved it and said it was the best bacon they ever had. Leftovers are great for burgers too!
