   I like to cook them on the grill - indirect over low to medium heat until the bacon is cooked. I check them about every 30 minutes, and might turn them over once. You could accomplish the same thing in an oven - about 300 degrees, checking every 30 minutes or so until bacon is done. Usually somewhere between 50 & 70 minutes.

   Watch the hot sugar, it'll burn you.

   Once the bacon is done, remove & cool on rack.

    They're great all by themselves, or cut up with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. I've also done them with orange zest in the sugar in place of the vanilla.
