Notes
A lot of people like to make candied bacon on a rack to maximize crispiness, but since we’re infusing our bacon (and the resulting bacon grease) with cannabis, I make mine right in the sheet so the bacon continues to cook in the infused bacon grease. You’ll end up with a slightly chewier but stronger finished product. By the way, you can save that infused bacon grease too cook with later if you like!
I also normally like to include the stems when I infuse butter or oil, but since we’re eating everything, it’s best to only use leaves and bud in this recipe.
