Bacon Orange Juice
and Brown Sugar

The name says it all in this great recipe.
If you never heard of this your in for a treat.
The bacon gets nice sweet and crispy.
You can add other spices like black pepper.

Ingredients:
1 pound bacon
3 tablespoons light brown sugar, packed
2 tablespoons orange juice

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil
and set a large wire rack in the pan.
Arrange the bacon slices on the rack
and roast 15 minutes or until the bacon
renders some of its fat and the slices shrink.
Meanwhile, in a small mixing bowl,
combine the brown sugar and orange juice.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven.
Using a pastry brush, lightly swab the slices
with about half of the brown sugar mixture,
return to the oven, and continue roasting
until the sugar mixture adheres to the bacon
and appears glossy, about 8 minutes.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven
and use tongs to turn over the slices.
Lightly brush the slices with the
remaining sugar mixture, return to the oven,
and continue roasting until the sugar mixture
adheres to the bacon and appears glossy,
about 8 minutes longer. Remove the baking
sheet from the oven, transfer the bacon
slices to a serving plate, and serve hot.
