Million Dollar Bacon
Not your average breakfast bacon. First Watch’s Million Dollar Bacon takes thick-cut, premium pork bacon and transforms it into something entirely next-level — glazed generously with brown sugar and cracked black pepper, kissed with a subtle heat from cayenne, then oven-baked low and slow until each strip is perfectly caramelized and lacquered in a rich, golden crust. A final drizzle of pure maple syrup delivers a sweet, sticky finish that makes this the most talked-about side on the entire First Watch menu.
The Million Dollar Bacon has earned a cult following among First Watch regulars. It is consistently ranked as one of the most ordered sides at every location across the country — beloved for its four-way flavor punch of sweet brown sugar, bold black pepper, smoky bacon, and a warming cayenne heat that lingers just long enough to keep you coming back for the next strip.
