Spiced Bacon Twists

This Saturday's experiment was the spiced bacon twist recipe from allrecipes.com -- essentially, take some bacon, press it into a mixture of brown sugar, mustard, cayenne, cinnamon and nutmeg, then bake it in the oven (on a metal rack, on a cookie sheet) for about half an hour at 350.

Overall, these were pretty good, although there were a couple of hitches: the spices didn't adhere as well as I'd hoped when I dipped the bacon in, and I had to resort to just sprinkling them over top before putting the bacon into the oven. Even then, a lot seemed to run off -- and since I couldn't pat the bacon down when it came out of the oven, it got pretty greasy when it cooled (answer: make sure you serve it hot, of course).

Served with Cinnilla's mother's most excellent French toast recipe.
