For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the glaze while cooking. If you prefer a smokier flavor, use smoked bacon. To prevent the avocados from browning, brush the cut surfaces with a little lemon or lime juice before filling. These are best served immediately, but can be assembled ahead of time and glazed just before serving.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPrepare the Bacon: Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crispy (about 8-10 minutes). Drain bacon slices on paper towels; once cooled, crumble into small pieces.
02
StepCreate the Glaze: In a saucepan, combine butter, brown sugar, red wine vinegar, soy sauce, and minced garlic. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the butter is melted and the sugar is completely dissolved (about 5-7 minutes). The glaze should be smooth and slightly thickened.
03
StepAssemble the Avocados: Gently sprinkle the halved avocados with salt to enhance their natural flavor. Fill each avocado half generously with the crumbled bacon, mounding it slightly.
04
StepGlaze and Serve: Drizzle the prepared glaze evenly over the bacon-stuffed avocados, ensuring each bite is infused with its sweet and savory notes. Serve immediately and enjoy!
