Preheat the oven to 250°F . Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and butter the parchment.Discard any unpopped kernels from the popcorn. Divide the popcorn and crumbled bacon evenly.Place the sugar, butter, and corn syrup in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Remove the pan from the heat and carefully stir in the bourbon, vanilla, salt, and baking soda.Immediately pour the bourbon syrup evenly over the popcorn and bacon and, working quickly, toss everything with a lightly buttered spatula to coat it. Spread the popcorn mixture in an even layer and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.Spread the popcorn on a fresh sheet of parchment paper to cool, breaking apart large clumps once the popcorn is not too hot to handle.
