Oven Cooked Bacon
I have before on this blog professed my love for baking eggs instead of boiling them, and today I want to shout from the roof top my love of cooking bacon in the oven instead of frying it. Oh, fried bacon... what a hassle, what a mess! It makes your kitchen smell greasy, makes you feel greasy... blah I would try to get out of it whenever I could.
Now that I cook it up in the oven, I really don't mind it at all. My husband is a bacon junkie so I cook it for him often in a week.
It really is a lot more simple this way.
You just need some heavy duty aluminum foil, a cookie sheet and a baking rack.
First you line the pan with the foil, place the rack on top, add bacon and ta-da your done! Cook until desired crispness is achieved at 350.
The rack helps the grease drip off and the foil makes for very easy clean up :)
I just roll it up and toss into the trash.
Yay Bacon!

Wow! I'll have to try that! We are bacon lovers too, but not only do I hate the mess but also getting splatted with bacon grease. I feel like I have to cook bacon in full armor!

ReplyDeletethe grill? do you just cover the grill rack with aluminum foil? does it make it taste differently? I will have to try that :)
