Sweet Meat Side Recipe
Maple Sugar Sausage
With 4 to feed, cook up an entire package of sausage (smoky links is best). When warming up the precooked sausage in a frying pan, add a tablespoon of maple syrup to the pan while warming the links and the results will be more sweet accolades for the chef.

Brown Sugared Bacon
- Use a ½ pound of bacon and, before laying each strip in a roasting pan, coat it in brown sugar.
- Place each coated strip in the bottom of a roasting pan in one layer.
- Place in the oven 30 minutes, starting at the same time and temperature as potatoes.
- Every 10 minutes, separate slices and pour off excess fat if necessary.
- If you like your bacon crispy, brown under the broiler for the last minute.
Accompaniments
A pitcher of fresh-squeezed orange juice and toasted English muffins served with butter and jam are the perfect extras for these delicious main dishes.
