Spanish Rice

In a 10-inch skillet, cook bacon till crisp; remove. To the bacon grease, add onion and green bell pepper and sauté until tender but not brown. Add tomatoes, water, rice, hot sauce, salt, pepper, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce and half of the bacon. Cover and simmer 35-40 minutes. You will need to stir it a few times to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Top with remaining bacon. Serves 6.

If you have a rice cooker, you can cook the bacon and sauté the onion and pepper on the stove and then transfer everything to the rice cooker, which is what I do.
