Bacon is meat candy.
The guy has my attention.
When parsing the menu at the new restaurant, the wife and I have a guideline that says “oh, that item has bacon, must be good!”
Ever had chocolate dipped bacon on a stick?
There IS such a thing as bacon candy....and it’s GREAT!
[Bacon is meat candy.]
Well, since you mentioned it:
Using a skillet (I like my T-Fal) go for very low heat. 2/10 on an electric stove.
Some butter,
Then some white sugar
Now add a little cinnamon.
Get that melted into a slight glaze.
Add in your chopped bacon. Or Pecans. Or both.
Keep the heat LOW. Or you’re going to have a burned black ball.
As it tightens up - you’ve got yourself some candied bacon and or pecans to use on chicken, etc.
Enjoy
