Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) package bacon
2 (8 ounce) cans water chestnuts, drained
1 cup ketchup
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for even baking.
Cut bacon slices into thirds. If any water chestnuts are large, cut them in half. Wrap each water chestnut with a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick. Arrange in a 9x13-inch baking pan.
Combine ketchup, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce in a saucepan. Heat over medium until it almost boils. Pour the sauce evenly over the bacon-wrapped water chestnuts.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 45-50 minutes, or until the bacon is fully cooked and crispy.
