How To Make Perfect Bacon Every Time
PREP TIP: If the packaged sliced bacon is cold from the refrigerator, slowly slide the dull edge of a butter knife along the length between the strips, to separate slices.
COOKING TIP: Avoid crowding while cooking more bacon. Crispy bacon is a product of allowing some breathing room in between strips while cooking so heat can circulate evenly. Where you’d want to limit your frying pan or skillet to 3-4 strips, you can fit about one pound on a sheet pan for baking. And more bacon is always better.
Baking Your Bacon?
Because frying bacon on the stove can be some smoky, messy business, you need to know how to bake bacon. Use your oven to bake the bacon for a consistent and delicious result every time.
• Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
• If you don’t plan to save the bacon fat, line a lipped sheet pan with aluminum foil. When finished, you’ll be able to easily peel the foil from the pan and discard – minimizing the mess to be scrubbed from the pan. (You can save the bacon fat by pouring it from one of the sheet pan corners into a jar. or, if you prefer to just scrap it, line your sheet pan with aluminum foil prior to baking so you can peel and trash them once you’re done.)
• Coat both sides of a cooling rack with light cooking spray before; place cooling rack in the sheet pan.
• Lay strips of bacon across the width of the cooling rack.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes.
• Remove bacon from oven. Place bacon on a plate lined with paper towel, and pat away excess grease with another sheet of paper towel.
