Sweet and spicy… bacon?

My former roommate and I used to cook a lot together (and a lot of pretty yummy food at that). Ever since we moved out though, we haven’t been able to cook together. However, we were able to change that with some pretty awesome food. Enter: Millionaire’s bacon.

This luxury is quite simple to make and is an amazing appetizer. You start with some thick-cut bacon, rub it with a mixture of brown sugar and spices, and throw it in the oven. Adjust the spices depending on how much sweet and spice you like ;).


Ingredients:
1 pound thick-cut bacon
3 stalks asparagus
5 tbl brown sugar
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp cayenne pepper

Millionaire's bacon ingredients


Before you start, pre-heat the oven to 350ºF. While the oven is warming up, mix together the brown sugar, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.

Then rub the bacon and asparagus with the sweet and spicy mix. Lay out the bacon and bake for about 20 minutes (the asparagus only needs to be baked for 5-10 minutes). Voila!
