Instructions

  1. Preheat to 350ºF. Line 2 baking sheets with foil.
  2. Cut the bacon in half. Separate the slices and place in a single layer on the baking sheets. When the oven is preheated, cook the bacon, one sheet at a time, for 10 minutes each. The bacon will not be cooked through, but just partly. Make sure to take it out while it is still pliable. Let the bacon cool until you can handle it.
  3. While the bacon is cooking and cooling, combine the ketchup, brown sugar, water, soy sauce, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper in a bowl. Stir to combine. 
  4. Take a half slice of bacon around a water chestnut and secure with a toothpick. Place in a 9x13-inch baking dish, then repeat with the remaining bacon and water chestnuts.
  5. Once all of the water chestnuts are wrapped, pour the sauce evenly over the top.
  6. Bake until the sauce is bubbling and hot and the bacon is cooked through, about 30 minutes.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • The sizes of the water chestnut can vary, so you may end up with an extra slice of bacon if they are on the larger size, or if they are on the smaller size, you may end up with extra water chestnuts. I tend to get an average of about 32 servings per batch.
