Savory Maple Chipotle Grilled Bacon Recipe

Step 1

Warm up your outdoor grill to a cozy medium-high temperature and give the grate a light coating of oil to prevent sticking.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the sweet maple syrup and spicy chipotle powder for a flavor-packed glaze.

Step 3

For easy cleanup, place a disposable aluminum pan on the upper rack of your grill or place it over indirect heat on one burner.

Step 4

Lay out the bacon strips directly on the sizzling grate and lower the heat to a gentle flame. Grill the bacon, giving it a flip now and then, until it reaches your desired level of crispy perfection - typically around 4 to 6 minutes. Once done, transfer the cooked bacon to the waiting pan to keep it warm.

Step 5

Put all the sizzling bacon back on the grill and generously brush both sides with the delightful maple-chipotle glaze. Let it cook for an additional minute to soak up the flavors. When ready, serve immediately and enjoy the smoky, sweet, and spicy goodness.
