Found This recipe, tried it and liked it much...
PRALINE BACON aka "Piggy Candy"
1 lb. bacon
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon chili powder
Pintch or 2 or cayanne pepper
1/2 cup pecans, chopped well.
Heat oven to 350˚F.
Let bacon warm up so sugar sticks better. Combine sugar, cayanne and chili powder
Roll bacon in mixture; Covering well
Place bacon on baking sheet or broiler pan; Sprinkle with pecans. (There will be leftover mixture, you don't have to use it all.)
Bake bacon on oven until well darkened, but not burnt. Transfer to a cooling rack lying over brown grocery bag. Let cool. Bacon will harden.
(As the fat in the bacon melts, it dissolves the sugar and the sugar carmelizes the smokiness of the chili powder and the pecans to the bacon.)

Capt Ron, that does sound fantastic. Seems like it would have a nice bit of kick on it as well. We like that... :o :D
Great recipe, keep them coming...

Exactly right!! A nice kick with the cayenne. The pepper, the sugar and the saltiness of the bacon would balance well. Sounds like a great snack.
