I have been cooking bacon in the oven for years inside a triple layered envelope of heavy duty foil. Then there is no mess. If I want to sprinkle brown sugar on it after it's as crisp as I want it. you just take it out, drain it on some paper towels or better yet the same racks you place your cookies on to cool. Make a pouring spout out of one corner of the foil, drain the bacon drippings and grease off. Put the bacon back on the foil. Sprinkle the brown sugar on, and pop it back in the oven. When it's finished pull the bacon off, put it back on the cooling rack or on some paper towels. and put the foil in the trash.
