Place the bacon in a large cast-iron pan and place on the side of the grill without coals. Close the lid with the vents half open and bake for 8 to 10 minutes until the bacon just starts to crisp. While the bacon is cooking, mix together the pecans and brown sugar. Once the bacon begins to crisp, place the pecan mixture on top of the bacon strips and close the lid. Allow the bacon to crisp with the sugar and nuts for another 3 to 5 minutes.
Remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Once the bacon is cool enough to handle, dice it up and sprinkle it over any breakfast item (french toast/pancakes/....) |
