This bacon ROCKED! I used my broiler pan and it came out awesome. I put the brown sugar/cayenne/pepper in a cake pan-coated the bacon by turning them over several times. I sprayed the top sheet of the broiler pan with some non stick spray, I covered the bottom of broiler pan in foil for easy clean up. I also cut my bacon pieces in half for a little quicker cooking time and to utilize the space on my broiler pan. After I had all of the bacon arranged, I took the remainder of the brown sugar mix and sprinkled over the top of the bacon. I cooked this at 375 for 25 minutes..glass of orange juice and some toast..very satisfying morning..I will be using this again. Cayenne took it to a whole new level. Think I will try this mixture in some baked beans too!
