How can you not love Bacon?!
To jazz up my eggs, sandwiches, salads or just eat by itself, here's a couple things I do.
Jalapeno Bacon - can of pickled jalapenos, marinate bacon overnight, cook as usual.
Bacon Candy - mix a little melted butter and brown sugar and brush over bacon before cooking
Sweet Apple Bacon - Brush each slice with Apple butter before cooking
Hot Bacon - marinate in my homemade hot pepper broth. You could use Franks/Butter or Cayenne/Crushed Red Pepper Flakes and some Olive Oil.
I've even done peach preserves to go with pork.
Personally I like to cook it in the oven vs. stovetop to avoid all the mess and hassle.
Lay slices in a single layer on a sheet, foil lined sheet, rack over a sheet, whatever you like... (I prefer a rack on the sheet lined with foil. Foil catches all the mess for no clean-up and the rack allows air to circulate the entire piece so you don't have to flip or have one soggy side). Bake at 400 for about 15-20 minutes depending on your oven and desired crispiness. Enjoy!
