Cook Bacon In Oven

Crisp, flat bacon. Can make a lot at one time. There is less mess and you can do other things while the bacon is in the oven. The bacon gets really crispy with the grease poured off and stays flat.

Ingredients:

1 lb. bacon, or more
jelly roll pan
parchment paper

Directions:

Preheat oven 450 degrees F. Place parchment paper on pan. Place slices of bacon on pan and place in oven and bake for about 5 minutes. Open oven and pour off bacon grease into a waiting fry pan for eggs or into a grease jar for use later for cooking. From that point on turn bacon slices over with tongs and Bake at 3 minute intervals, more or less. Check bacon and pour off grease and flip till desired doneness.

Tip: Cook Bacon In Oven For Less Fat

For superior oven cooked bacon, DON'T PRE-HEAT the oven. Place thick strips of bacon on a rack, place in oven. Turn oven to 360 degrees F. The cooking time will be longer because the oven needs to warm up. The longer time gives the fat more time to come out. You will have a crisper, better textured bacon.

RE: Cook Bacon In Oven For Less Fat

My husband is a Chef and this is how he always does it, especially when he has lots to cook. The general rule is 'it's done when you can smell it'. Start checking at that point and go longer if you like it crisper. (05/02/2008)
