Bedeviled Bacon

1. 1

   Cut the bacon slices in half widthwise; set aside.

2. 2

   In a small mixing bowl, place the egg, mustard, cayenne pepper, and vinegar; using an electric mixer, beat on medium speed until blended and smooth.

3. 3

   Pour the egg mixture into a pie pan; set aside.

4. 4

   Sprinkle the cracker meal over a 1-foot-square piece of waxed paper; set aside.

5. 5

   Dip the bacon pieces in the egg mixture; then, dredge lightly in the cracker meal and place, single layer, on ungreased broiler racks over broiler pans.

6. 6

   Let stand 15 minutes.

7. 7

   Bake the bacon in a preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes.

8. 8

   Watch carefully during the last few minutes of baking, as the bacon can overbrown quickly at the end of the baking period.
