- Preheat oven to 400°; line 2 rimmed baking pans with parchment paper. In small bowl, whisk sugar and pepper. Place bacon in single layer on 1 prepared pan; rub both sides with sugar mixture.
- In medium bowl, gently toss tomatoes and oil; place in single layer on second prepared pan. Roast bacon 25 minutes or until crisp; roast tomatoes 18 minutes or until tender. Transfer bacon to paper towel-lined plate; cool slightly and cut each slice crosswise in half.
- Place buns, cut side up, on rimmed baking pan; spray with cooking spray. Bake buns 7 minutes or until lightly browned; cool slightly. Lightly brush writing gel on top halves of buns to create the "black groove lines" of a "basketball."
- Spread top halves of buns with aioli; top bottom buns with lettuce, bacon, tomatoes and top halves of buns. Makes 12 sliders.
