Personal Notes:
TIPS:
*Definately use foil on your pans when baking.
*Cook for first 25 minutes at 325 and the last 15 minutes at 350. Use center cut, thin sliced bacon and cut in half. Less fat and no need for toothpicks.
*Also if putting in a slow cooker to keep warm, pour a half a cup (or so) of maple syrup in the cooker to help keep them moist.

Another variation:
Place 1/4 cup apple juice in a bowl and heat 45 seconds in the microwave on HIGH power. Carefully remove bowl. Stir in 3 T brown sugar; set aside. Cut bacon into three 3-inch sections. Peel apart one section of the bacon at a time and soak the pieces in the apple juice/sugar mixture. Wrap one 3-inch piece of bacon around each frank. Place in rows on prepared sheet pan. Sprinkle tops of each bacon-wrapped frank with more brown sugar. Bake 20 to 25 minutes.
