Bacon in the oven?

[Lizz]

I know some of you do it this way......tell me how....


*off to google*

I have metal cooling racks from my Mom from yeeeaars ago. I put those on a cookie sheet so the grease drains. Pop it in at 350 for about 8-10 minutes. Flip it to broiler for a few. Flip the bacon over and repeat.

I put it on a big heavy cookie sheet, at 350, and start checking it at about 20 minutes for desired doneness. Just pour grease off into a coffee can or something when it's done then put finished bacon on paper towels to blot.

Or pour grease on dog's food....:dunno:

Jedi hardly EVER gets people food......but when I cook bacon he knows he gets a lil love. So he nonchalantly wanders around the kitchen :laugh:

Max waits patiently at our feet while we are eating, knowing someone will rop something.

Or, waits for Lexie to feed him. :rolleyes:

I just put foil on the bottom part of my broiler pan, put the bacon in a cold oven and set to 415. Takes about 15 minutes, depending on desired doneness and how much I put in the pan.

Mine :hbeat:looooooooove:hbeat: bacon grease. I give them a little too. Unless I forget and leave it on the counter to cool, then Tara will just help herself. :getyou:

Nothing like finding tongue prints in the pan. Which you thought you had pushed far enough from the edge of the counter so tongues wouldn't reach. :indiff:

I put mine on parchment paper on a cookie sheet, 400 for 15-20 minutes or so.

[Phoebe]

I've never cooked bacon in the oven. :blush: I hear it's good.

[Dar]

I never did it until Jenny posted about it. I'll never fry it again.

[Phoebe]

I never fry it, either :blush:

Microwave City!!!

[Dar]

Oh. I've only nuked bacon when I need it partially cooked for wrapping chicken (then grilling). I just can't fathom nuking bacon. I like it a bit crispy on the edges.

[Natale]

I made bacon in the oven one time, and I didn't like it. I wasn't crispy.

[taragunner]

Cook it 5 more minutes. :)

I might give it another try when dh isn't home. He was pretty sure I was going to burn the whole house down with that.

Oh, no. Silly Mr. S ... Smoke means you're almost done!

[Dar]

I like it in the oven because I just have to toss the foil away. No making the house smell like bacon, and no greasy splatter (that gets in every nook and cranny) to spend forever cleaning up.

[Lizz]

My house still smells like bacon :dunno:


Nat -- mine was crispy.....or burnt, whatever :rolleyes:

[Dar]

Well, mine smells like it for a little while, of course. But the smell doesn't linger all day like it would when I make it in a pan. Because, you know. I haven't cleaned the pan yet. :indiff:

[Alli]

I :love: bacon. You're making me hungry. I don't feel like cooking it, in the oven, micro(ewwww) or stove.
