Deep Fried Bacon is FANTASTIC!

Ingredients

* 3 eggs
* 1/2 cup milk
* 1 pound thick sliced bacon, cut in half
* 3 cups all-purpose flour
* salt and pepper to taste
* 2 cups vegetable oil for frying

Directions 1. Whisk together the eggs and milk in a bowl until smooth. Separate the bacon strips, and soak in the milk mixture for 30 minutes.

2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Heat oil in deep skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

3. Whisk together the flour, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl. Remove the bacon from the egg mixture, and toss with the flour to coat. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

4. Fry the bacon strips 3 to 5 slices at a time until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Once all of the bacon has cooked, place onto the prepared baking sheet, and bake in the preheated oven until crispy, about 7 minutes.

I did this for a party at The Local Watering Hole a few months ago. There were A LOT of skeptics UNTIL they tried it. 3 pounds went F-A-S-T!

oven cooked bacon is the easiest, surprisingly fast, and you can cook a whole bunch at once, and it stays straight....you don't have to flip it either....

big clue to great bacon is to PEPPER it liberally....
