Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top—that way the bacon can crisp up all around. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, chili powder, and cayenne pepper. Take each slice of bacon and press both sides into the sugar and spice mix so it’s well coated. Then, wrap a bacon slice around each pretzel rod, leaving a little bit of the pretzel uncovered at the bottom so you can hold it easily. Set the wrapped pretzels on the wire rack, giving them a bit of space. Pop them in the oven and bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the bacon is nice and crispy. Let them cool for a minute before digging in!

How to serve
Serve warm alongside dipping sauces like honey mustard, ranch, or spicy aioli. They are a great appetizer for game day or a simple snack with drinks. Add some fresh veggies or cheese cubes to create a fuller snack platter.
Storage & leftovers
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat in the oven or toaster oven to keep the bacon crispy. Avoid microwaving to prevent sogginess.
