I make glazed bacon. Everyone does. It's not a recipe, it's a fabulous idea, a method. Mine? Well, I make brown sugar and cayenne bacon. I like the combination of the hot and the sweet and the smoke of the bacon. I lay bacon on a pan, sprinkle it with brown sugar and cayenne and bake it until it's crisp. I eat it purely for the enjoyment of eating it even though every time I make it, I pretend it's for some higher cause. It never it, I just eat it.
I have an evil friend who throws culinary gauntlets before me. This is one of hers.
I haven't done the bacon it in pure maple syrup AND sugar AND nuts. My [evil] friend told me to make this. I did make this. Now, I can never UNknow how to make this. Since she trapped in my head, I'm going to pay it forward and now, now it's trapped in yours.
You're welcome. :D

The final beauty shot:
Maple and Brown Sugar glazed Bacon with Pecans
Line a sheet pan with parchment and line it with as much bacon as you want, flat.
Pour a little maple syrup (the REAL stuff!) over the bacon and coat it lightly.
Sprinkle brown sugar then chopped pecans over the bacon.
BAKE in a preheated 225 oven for 60-75 minutes.
Remove from oven, transfer to a rack to harden/setup/cool/crystalize.
EAT
EAT SOME MORE
EAT another piece
Put it in a sandwich, on a sausage bun, on a hot dog, over ICE CREAM or just eat it.
You're welcome, now YOU can never UNKNOW this as well ;)
Ahh, the last of my beloved New Mexico pecans...The final beauty shot:
