Pig Candy for Easter

There are lots of reasons that I like the Sweet Potato Queens, but one of the biggest reasons is the recipe for Pig Candy. I guess the proximity to Easter has made me think of this, after all, Easter brings to mind candy, and ham, right? This would make a delightful appetizer for your Easter dinner this year.

Anyway, the beauty of this recipe lies not in its simplicity but in its mouth watering goodness. After all, how can you go wrong with bacon (pork fat rules) and sugar.

All you do is take the amount of bacon of your choice (the more the better, of course) and lay it all out in a single layer in a baking pan. I always put foil down and spray it with no stick spray so I don’t have to waste any time cleaning up and therefor, can dedicate more time to eating. See, there is a method to my madness. Then you sprinkle the bacon with brown sugar to your hearts content and bake ‘til your desired doneness (If you can wait that long) That’s it!!

The sugar cancels out the fat in the bacon, by the way.

You're welcome!!
