I find baking is the best way to cook all parts equally, and you can cook in bulk this way. | |||

I fry it. Maybe that's what you fancy high-profile people mean by "sauté". | |||

I've started baking my bacon. Since the fat should be rendered slowly, baking is what works best. Aluminum foil on a baking/cookie sheet, lay slices evenly on foil (try not to stretch the slices), place baking/cookie sheet in COLD oven and set for 400*. Check it in about 17-18 minutes and it should be done. I need a larger baking/cookie sheet..... "If you’re a leader, you lead the way.

Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

I nuke mine. You need to cover it with a paper towel or something to keep it from splattering all over the inside of the microwave. I don't paint it with maple syrup or honey; that's gilding the lily. You might want to give it a try. If it's good enough for Jacques Pepin, it's good enough for me.

When I worked in a restaurant some 40 years ago, that's how they did it. Full sized baking sheets hold a lot of bacon. __________________________________________________________________________________ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Always remember that others may hate you but those who hate you don't win unless you hate them.

I prefer the spiritual experience of cooking it slowly in my huge old Griswold cast iron skillet, while turning and rotating it. The turning & rotating scratches the same manly itch as poking a campfire with a stick. The added benefit is properly seasoning my iron in the process, with bacon grease like it's been getting seasoned for the last hundred years or so. That said, with our huge family, I'm usually cooking two pounds at a time, and the skillet still isn't big enough. Lately, the aforementioned cold oven trick with foiled baking sheets has worked well, and still lets me pour off the grease into a jar for later use. | |||

How do I cook bacon? Fully clothed. I learned to always wear clothing. Damn it, bacon grease splatters hurt like a sumbitch! | |||

Broiled, but in a countertop toaster oven, not the big oven. Pan-frying it doesn't cook it as evenly, and microwaving it is too soggy. | |||

No good deed goes unpunished |
A friend's mom makes flour bacon. Dredge thick bacon in seasoned flour and fry in a little bacon grease in pre-heated cast iron skillet. We bake ours on large sheet pans lined with parchment paper. | |||

I cook it in a small aluminum pan on the warming rack on the grill. | |||

That just means that you need a bigger skillet. I agree completely with your first paragraph. I always low cook it in a Griswold to a chewy goodness. Can't stand crunchy overcooked bacon. If I'm in a hurry though, I'll nuke it. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||

Cast iron pan on the BBQ grill, I'm not sure if that's more ft or bake. Sometimes on a sheet of foil on the BBQ. Do not send me to a heaven where there are no dogs. Step Up or Stand Aside: Support the Troops ! Expectations are premeditated disappointments. | |||
