who's hungry?

Good idea. I hate all the grease that splatters when you fry them or cook them in the microwave. But then again I don’t know if I want to heat up the house with the oven or wait 20 minutes for them to get done.

Why have I been popping bacon grease all over my kitchen (and arm) all these years?

I have a George Forman Grill. It cooks from both sides and is fast and easy to use for many things. Use it for bacon all the time.

My Mother made bacon in the oven this way all the time.

I like thick bacon, and buy Oscar Mayer Butcher thick-cut bacon. Because I live alone I used to separate the pound of bacon, and put the slices in plastic bags, then throw them in the freezer. That got to be a pain in the arse, and I didn't like leaving a whole pound in the crisper drawer as it would go bad before I'd get to eat it all.

I found an easy solution to my problem. I line my cookie sheets with foil, lay the strips of bacon side by side as described in the video, then bake them in the oven at about 300 degrees. I can't fit the sheets side by side, so have to use two racks while cooking. I set the timer for 25 minutes, and when the alarm goes off, I switch the cookie sheets on the racks. Top one goes down, bottom one comes up. Set the timer for another 20 minutes. The bacon isn't crisp, but I don't want it to be. I layer the bacon on paper toweling, stacking the layers as I go. I can usually get six slices per layer. I then put the whole stack...paper towels and all, into a rectangular-shaped plastic container, and throw the whole thing in my fridge.

When I feel like having bacon with breakfast, I take out three slices, throw them on low in a frying pan, and use the small amount of bacon grease that's left to cook my egg in. If I want to have a BLT, I can wrap the slices I need in toweling paper, put it on a paper plate, and nuke it for a short time. It works perfect for me, and clean-up is easy. By cooking at the lower temperature, I don't get the spattering in the oven either.

So, does it splatter all over the inside of the oven, just moving the the mess to an even harder area to clean?

[FlyingEagle]

For bacon, any mess is ok. Anything for bacon.

My dogs, who are Bacon Retrievers, will go slide down the slide on the backyard swing set for bacon.

“Bacon is undisputedly one of the greatest inventions in the history of mankind. That’s right, MANkind. We men can’t live without bacon.”

Seriously. Great post.

Improvements: Start with a cold oven, put your bacon on the foil covered cooking sheet, set the oven at 450. Most of the time, as soon as I smell bacon (and my mind starts drooling), I know it is ready, 14-16 minutes for my oven.

Alternative, if you have a criss cross rack that will fit in your cooking sheet, place the bacon on that. (still foil wrap the top of the pan.)

Either way, it’s easy to pour off the bacon grease into a small container for later use (can’t beat it for oiling up the pan for frying eggs.)

My sister's dog, Maddie, can't have bacon. Nonetheless she swiped some from the table.

My BIL grabbed her and pulled the bacon out of her mouth and she snapped at him.

My sister was upset that she almost bit.

I said that I'd bite my BIL if he tried to take bacon out of my mouth.

He said "Exactly".
