Instructions
- Step 1: Chef tip: For the best results, begin this cook with a clean drip pan/tray and place the Mesh Cooking Mat on the side closest to the grease drain. The quicker the grease can leave the pan and exit the grill, the better!
- Step 2: Burning the cherry pellets, preheat recteq to 385ºF.
- Step 3: In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup of packed light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of cracked black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes together.
- Step 4: Place the bacon in the bowl and rub the bacon with the seasoning mixture. Gently twist each piece until it will not twist any more and place on Mesh Cooking Mat.
- Step 5: Place in recteq and check after 20 minutes.
- Step 6: Continue cooking for up to 10 more minutes until bacon is cooked. Chef Tip: Bacon may try to untwist during cooking. Just use tongs to straighten them up, so they don’t touch each other or overlap and continue on.
- Step 7: Remove from recteq and allow the bacon to rest for 5 minutes.

We think this Billionaire Bacon goes with anything, but if you need some inspo, try our Cinnamon Rolls and scrambled eggs.
