A delicious sweet, chewy, crispy and savory treat! Super fast & easy to do, no matter what you're cooking with - be it a grill, smoker or even in the oven.
Thank you Timothy Martin of Smell That Smoke BBQ M.K.E. for this recipe!
So, this recipe is a quick one - don't blink or you'll miss it! Grab a wired cookie/drying rack and grease it so the bacon won't stick. Then place the rack on top of a baking pan. Lay out the bacon strips on top.
What you want to do now, is layer on a few different flavors. Starting with some Cherry Apple Habanero rib glaze, give the top side a thin coat.
Next, sprinkle on a coat of brown sugar. As it melts later in the cook, it will coat the bacon.
Finally, sprinkle on some black pepper and Sweet Honey Pecan rub. These will add to the flavor profile of your sweet honey bacon.
Time to get cooking! Fire up your cooker (or oven), and preheat to 350ºF (177ºC). Place the rack with the bacon over heat that's as indirect as possible - we don't want to burn the spices we layered on there.
Let the bacon cook for 25-30 minutes. If you check in at the 25 minute mark, and the edges have still not caramelized or crisped up, don't be afraid to give it 10 more minutes.
When the bacon reaches your desired crispness, pull the rack off the heat. Make sure to let it cool down a little (it will be molten lava)!
Then remove the sweet honey bacon from the drying rack, and place on parchment paper. Store in a zipper bag or airtight container for later, or enjoy right away!
Once more, big thanks to Timothy Martin of Smell That Smoke BBQ M.K.E. for this recipe. It's going to be great on snacks, Christmas cookies, sandwiches, burgers, chopped in salads or tacos, or even garish for your adult beverages.

These Reverse Seared Steaks are all about building a deep, flavorful crust while keeping the inside perfectly juicy and tender. This recipe puts two cooking methods head-to-head: one steak gets the reverse-sear treatment with a slow cook over indirect heat, while the other goes straight over high heat using the traditional grilling method.
These Honey BBQ Spam Burnt Ends are all about smoky flavor, sticky-sweet BBQ sauce, and ridiculously easy preparation. Cubes of Spam get coated in Kosmos Q Honey Killer Bee Rub, smoked until golden and caramelized, then tossed in a buttery brown sugar BBQ sauce that turns into a thick, sticky glaze.
These Hot Honey Grilled Salmon fillets are all about sweet heat, smoky flavor, and keeping things incredibly simple. A whole skin-on salmon fillet gets coated in olive oil and Kosmos Q Honey Killer Bee Rub, then grilled until perfectly cooked and flaky.
