Best way to cook thick sliced bacon.

Depends on thickness of bacon, 15 minutes at 400 will give you chewy bacon, 20 to 25 minutes will give you crispy bacon, 30+ min is when your smoke alarms off!

Another option:

Transfer out of pan onto paper towels and let cool and then freeze it with wax paper in between layers, after making your eggs and toast, put two or three pieces on paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds and you're good to go!

LL, that wire rack will make it even less greasy for you thanks for that idea.

Susan has been baking bacon for years now. So much cleaner. .a sheet of aluminum foil covers the pan. When finished, I pinch the end of the foil to make a spout and pour the fluid into a peanut butter jar we keep in the freezer. This is used to fill the suet feeder to keep the woodpeckers happy.

Interesting way to cook bacon.

Alternative to using a bacon press on my Blackstone .

It comes out way better in the oven then pan.

I like doing it in the micro wave.

Jealous of you getting fresh tomatoes in March lol looks great

Susan buys extra thick bacon and says it takes a half hour. Just out of the oven.

I use parchment paper in the turkey pan, does a bunch of bacon. Grease gets drained and paper goes in waxed 1/2 and 1/2 container for fire starter. No mess.

Bacon in the oven is bordering on straight up communism....dang southern folk

I've got a buddy from MO, and his wife makes it in the oven, but she dredges the bacon in a little seasoned flour. Then bakes it. That's some good stuff too.

We have been doing it that way for almost 30 years. Comes out perfect every time.

my wife cooks for the schools, and they cook about 10 pounds of bacon a week, I get all the grease

Take the bacon out of the pan and then fry eggs in it. No better eggs to be had.

looks Great

I boil mine in its own fat...in a saucepan. Take it out before it is crispy...soft and chewy but; yours looks better.

Great idea!
