Bacon in microwave is good, cover with paper towel keeps down the mess
For most microwaves it works out to 1 minute and 10 seconds per slice...
:-) Our microwave is pretty much just a prop. It’s cute & very nice (it was a gift), but we use it about 3 or 4 times a year. Maybe because I like my bacon real crisp, I always burn the devil out of it. So, in that regard, the skillet works better for me.
