Start with a pound of bacon, have Cookies flavor enhancer and some brown sugar handy.

Directions:

On the smoker:
Set your smoker to 325 degrees. Lightly season one side of the bacon with Cookies Flavor Enhancer and the sugar of your choice. (Use care not to over season.)

On the grill:
Turn your grill to low heat. Lightly season one side of the bacon with Cookies Flavor Enhancer and the sugar of your choice. (Use care not to over season.)
