In my opinion, bacon makes everything better! It's just one of those things that you can pretty much use in any dish from BBQ to dessert. I use it to kick up different dishes, but it's absolutely incredible all be itself. Most people tend to eat bacon just like it is, but if you start playing around and putting different seasonings and spices on it, it'll open up a whole new world. Now follow along and I'll show you how to make one of my favorites!

Ingredients

Your favorite Hot Sauce
-
Brown Sugar
-
Aight Guys!! Smokey Sweet Rub
-
Candied Jalapeños
Candied Bacon
Directions
Candied Jalapeno Bacon
Preheat pellet smoker to 400 degrees.
I used 7 slices of bacon. Place bacon on a wire rack and brush both sides with your favorite hot sauce.
Sprinkle each piece of bacon with brown sugar and my Aight Guys!! Smokey Sweet Rub.
Lastly, place 4 slices of candied jalapeños on each piece of bacon.
Place wire rack with bacon in your preheated pellet smoker and allow to cook for 20-25 minutes depending on your grill. Keep an eye on it because sugar tends to burn.
Once bacon is done, remove from smoker and allow to cool for at least 20 minutes. Then it’s time to go in for that bite baby!
