KITTENCAL'S METHOD FOR OVEN COOKED BACON



Kittencal's Method for Oven Cooked Bacon image

When I make this I make lots and then freeze in bags using my Food Saver storage system, this method saves time and not to mention the greasy clean up that comes with frying, I pour the grease into a Pyrex measuring cup then save and refrigerate overnight or until hard then scoop out a few tablespoons at a time, freeze on plates then I place in freezer bags to use in recipes to add flavor, you may save or discard the grease --- since RZ system would not accept one ingredient I have listed 1-1/2 pounds bacon separately, you may of course use as much as you like.

PERFECT OVEN-COOKED BACON



Perfect Oven-Cooked Bacon image

This recipe differs from others in method - it produces bacon slices which are perfectly flat - better for sandwiches and some recipes which call for cooked bacon. You will not be using the 1/4 teaspoon water. Food.com will not let you upload a recipe that only has one ingredient, so I had to make up a second ingredient. I tried putting in "love" but it wouldn't let me. You should always be cooking with love, btw.

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 lb bacon
1/4 teaspoon water

Steps:

  • DO NOT pre-heat the oven.
  • You will not be using the 1/4 teaspoon water. I had to add it to the ingredients list because Food.com will not let you upload a recipe that only has one ingredient, so I had to make up a second ingredient.
  • Place the bacon in a single layer on a cold, rimmed baking sheet. If you like, you can line the pan with parchment paper to make clean-up easier, but I like to save my bacon grease to cook with, and the parchment makes it difficult to get it all out of the baking sheet, so I just leave the pan unlined.
  • Place the pan on the center rack of a cold oven. Set the oven to 400ยบ.
  • Cook for 15 to 20 minutes. Very thin bacon will only take about 15 minutes, thick-cut bacon will take 20. After 15 minutes, keep an eye on the bacon to make sure it is not getting too brown.
  • Immediately remove the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Blot the top of the bacon with paper towels to remove extra grease.
  • If you like, save the bacon grease in a heat-proof container. The grease can be stored in the fridge and used later in other recipes - you just got two products for the price of one :).

OVEN BACON

Cooking bacon in the oven gives you perfectly crispy slices without any flipping or fussing, and the cleanup is superspeedy. It's also the best way to make bacon for a crowd. You can cook the bacon directly on aluminum foil-lined baking sheets or on a wire rack set on top of the baking sheets. The latter method will give you extracrispy bacon, but you'll have to wash that greasy rack. Your choice!

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 1

1 pound bacon

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Arrange the bacon in a single layer on 2 aluminum foil-lined rimmed baking sheets, or, for extracrispy bacon, arrange on 2 wire racks set over 2 foil-lined rimmed baking sheets.
  • Bake until the bacon is browned and starts to ripple, or to desired doneness, 10 to 20 minutes. (Because the cook time depends on the thickness of the bacon and how you like it cooked, start checking doneness at the 10-minute mark.)
  • Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Tips:

  • Always start with thick-cut bacon, as it cooks more evenly and results in a crispier texture.
  • If you're cooking a large batch of bacon, consider using a baking sheet with a raised edge to prevent grease from splattering.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet; bacon needs space to cook properly.
  • Cook the bacon in a single layer for the best results.
  • If you want extra crispy bacon, cook it for a few minutes longer.
  • Keep a close eye on the bacon while it's cooking; it can burn quickly.
  • Let the bacon cool on a paper towel-lined plate before serving to absorb any excess grease.

Conclusion:

Kittencal's method for oven-cooked bacon is a simple and effective way to achieve perfectly crispy bacon every time. By following these tips, you can enjoy delicious, crispy bacon that's sure to satisfy your cravings.
