Step by Step Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375°. Arrange bacon in a single layer on a wire rack in an aluminum foil-lined broiler pan. Bake at 375° for 10 minutes or just until bacon begins to curl at ends.
Step 2
While bacon cooks, combine brown sugar and bourbon in a small bowl, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
Step 3
Remove the bacon from oven. Brush both sides of bacon with brown sugar mixture. Bake at 375° for 42 more minutes or until bacon is crisp around edges and browned, brushing both sides of bacon with brown sugar mixture every 10 minutes.
NOTE: the original recipe said 42 minutes, but I think this might burn if cooked that long. Watch carefully so it doesn't burn! The bacon won't be crisp until it cools.
Step 4
Cool completely on a wire rack (about 30 minutes). Bacon will become crisp as it cools.
