Ingredients
- 1 pound Bacon (usually 16-20 slices in a pound)
- 2 pounds mixed berries
- 36 bamboo skewers
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon minced mint (optional)
Instructions
- Soak your bamboo used for the bacon for an hour or so.
- Thread the bacon onto the skewers.
- For the best look I usually make it pretty wavy, this also prevents the bacon from sitting completely in the rendered fat.
- Line your baking sheet with parchment paper and put the skewers on the sheet.
- Without preheating, put the bacon in the oven.
- Turn the oven onto 400 degrees and set your timer for 12 minutes.
- The bacon will take anywhere from 12-15 minutes to cook, but after 12 minutes it is a good idea to keep an eye on it as you don't want it to burn and the last bit of browning happens pretty quickly.
- For the berries, mix the water, sugar, lemon juice and mint and toss the berries in it.
- Skewer as you wish on the bamboo sticks.
- Try to save some for the guests :)
