A US mum has demonstrated how she makes a “secret bacon recipe” that her family absolutely adores. The delicious-looking bite-size treat is sweet, crunchy and chewy.<\/p>\n
Erica Kuiper is a New Yorker, who moved to North Carolina with her family. The passionate cooking fan has a huge 1.9M followers on her TikTok account @cookiterica. <\/p>\n
The mum posted her “secret bacon recipe” and told her fans: “This technique makes everyone happy! It’s crunchy and chewy.” The hack has had a huge 65.8K views on the app.<\/p>\n
She has appeared on the Food Network and has 55.9K subscribers to her YouTube account @cookiterica. All you need is thick-cut bacon rashers, Dijon mustard, and brown sugar. Erin said: “I’m going to show you my bacon hack because it makes everyone very happy. Get thick bacon, roll it up, just like that.”<\/p>\n
She said: “Cook at 400F until it looks and sounds like this.” The little parcel of bacon is deep brown and makes a crispy sound when tapped with a nail. Erica puts the bacon roll-ups in the oven for 15 minutes in total, flipping halfway.<\/p>\n

Erin said: “You can put this on your Blackstone, you can put it in a pan. Put some Dijon mustard on both sides and sprinkle some brown sugar.<\/p>\n
“And on low heat caramelize just a couple of minutes on each side. It’s gonna get candied on the outside. It’s going to be chewy on the inside.”<\/p>\n
The cook’s wife tried the tasty treat and said: “Gordon Ramsey who?” The whole family smiled in agreement, trying the yummy, meaty snack.<\/p>\n
Erica’s fans left some suggestions in the comments, with a few suggesting a tasty way to spice up the treat. Pilly wrote: “Add some cayenne pepper to the brown sugar.”<\/p>\n
