Snoop Dogg's Billionaire's Bacon Recipe
If you love bacon, you will fall for Snoop Dogg's Billionaire's Bacon Recipe. It is sweet, smoky and crispy, with a little bit of luxury in every bite.
Ingredients
- 12 slices thick-cut bacon
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper optional for heat
- ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place a wire rack on top if you want crispier bacon.
Prepare the Bacon
- Lay the bacon slices on the baking sheet in a single layer. Make sure the pieces do not overlap. This ensures even cooking and caramelization.
Make the Sugar Glaze
- In a small saucepan, mix brown sugar, maple syrup, cayenne, smoked paprika, black pepper and vanilla extract. Heat gently until sugar dissolves, about two minutes. Stir well.
Coat the Bacon
- Brush each bacon slice with the sugar glaze using a spoon or basting brush. Make sure the glaze covers the bacon evenly. Reserve a little glaze for later.
Bake the Bacon
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15–20 minutes. Turn slices halfway through and brush with remaining glaze. Watch closely; bacon can burn quickly due to sugar.
Cool and Serve
- Remove bacon from oven and let cool for 2–3 minutes. The glaze will harden slightly, giving a crispy, caramelized texture. Serve warm for the best flavor.
Notes
- Use thick-cut bacon for the best texture.
- Brush with glaze twice for extra caramelization.
- Add a pinch of cayenne for a sweet-spicy kick.
- Use dark brown sugar for richer flavor.
- Try maple or honey syrup for different sweetness.
- Cook on a wire rack for crispier bacon.
- Serve with pancakes or fresh fruit for brunch.
