Maple-Chipotle Glazed Bacon Grilled to Perfection

Ingredients 0/3

Step 1

Gently heat your grill to medium-high and give the grates a quick oiling so the bacon doesn’t stick. In a small bowl, mix together the maple syrup and chipotle powder until well combined. Set a disposable aluminum pan on the upper rack or off to the side on indirect heat to keep the bacon warm later.

Step 2

Place the bacon strips directly on the hot grill grates, then turn the heat down to low. Grill the bacon, turning it often, until it’s nicely browned and crispy—this usually takes about 4 to 6 minutes. Once cooked, move the bacon to the pan you set aside to keep it warm.

Step 3

Pop the bacon back on the grill and brush both sides generously with the maple-chipotle glaze. Let it cook for just about a minute more so the glaze gets sticky and caramelized. Serve the bacon right away and enjoy!
