1/4 cup Brown Sugar
2 Tbsp. Rice Vinegar
2 Tbsp. Maple Syrup
Black Pepper, to taste
1 lb. Thick Cut Bacon

Mix brown sugar, rice vinegar, maple syrup, and black pepper in a small blow, set aside.

Preheat oven to 350. Place bacon strips on a cooling rack set over a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes then flip it over and cook for 5 more minutes.

Remove bacon and brush both sides with the sugar mixture and then cook for 5 more minutes. Repeat basting every 5 minutes until the bacon is cooked browned and crisp.

(This bacon is excellent on a burger)
