Footnotes

Cook's Notes:
Substitute pure maple syrup for the brown sugar if preferred.
For step 2, you can combine the bacon and brown sugar in a resealable plastic bag, seal, and shake until bacon is coated. Then arrange bacon on the baking sheet.
Do not drain bacon on paper towels, the sugar will stick!
