Crites Family Stuff

Ingredients for 1 serving

• 2 cans whole water chestnuts, drained
• 1 lb bacon
• .5 cup brown sugar
• .5 cup ketchup
• 1 tbsp soy sauce

Steps

1. Cut bacon strips into thirds. Wrap around chestnuts and secure with a flat toothpick (so you won't break the chestnut). Bake in a shallow pan 30-40 minutes at 350F. If you want crispy bacon, bake toward the 40 minute end. Adjust to how you want it. Drain gease.
2. Make sauce of the sugar, ketchup, and soy sauce. Pour over the baked chestnuts. Bake 10 minutes at 350F. Serve. If you're going to serve later, chill the chestnuts and just before serving, pour the sauce over and cook a little longer than the 10 minutes.
