Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • ⅓ cup dark brown sugar
  • 4 tablespoons of unsalted Grassland Butter
  • 1/8 teaspoon of cayenne
  • 1/2 teaspoon of fine sea salt
  • 2/3 cup of whiskey- We prefer Jameson!
  • ¾ pound of thick cut bacon
  • 1/2 pound of roasted brussel sprouts

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Combine butter, brown sugar, salt, cayenne and whiskey in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisking constantly, cook until the butter has melted and the mixture has formed a smooth sauce. The process should take 8-10 minutes.
  3. Spread the bacon slices on a cooling rack set over a baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes, turn slices and bake for another 5 minutes.
  4. Remove from oven and brush with glaze.
  5. Return bacon to oven and bake 5 minutes. Repeat basting every 5 minutes until bacon is brown and crisp. About 35 minutes.
  6. Cut or break into pieces and add to roasted brussel sprouts. Drizzle the entire dish with the remaining glaze.
