Marley’s Coffee Bacon
I know. We also didn’t think bacon could get any better than, well…bacon! But, we’re happy to be wrong. This recipe isn’t too coffee-tasting to overpower the salty, savory goodness but it does leave its mark! It’s like all of our favorite things about morning rolled up into one.
Serves: 8-12 slices
Prep Time: Overnight + 30 minutes
Ingredients:
- 8-12 slices uncooked bacon
- 1/4 cup freshly ground Marley Coffee
- 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
- 4 tablespoons packed brown sugar, divided
- 2 tablespoons molasses
- 1 tablespoon water
- Freshly cracked black pepper
Method:
- Line 9×13 baking sheet with parchment paper or brown butcher paper
- Lay bacon atop one another on sheet, fat on top, and slightly overlapping
- In a small bowl, combine the coffee, chili powder, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, molasses, and water.
- Spread the mixture over the exposed, fatty part of the bacon slices
- Press it in with the back of a spoon.
- Wrap in the parchment or butcher paper
- Refrigerate overnight.
- When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

- Wipe off most of the coffee grounds with a paper towel, but not all. The majority of the coffee will be on the top of the bacon slices.
