OVEN FRIED BACON - NO MESS, NO CLEANUP!
This is my favorite way of making bacon, no mess, no cleanup! Comes out just like fried bacon crispy, fries in the oven in it's own bacon grease. The pepper is optional.

Steps:
- Use a 4 sided pan like a jelly roll pan.
- Line pan with tinfoil.
- Fold parchment paper to fit over tinfoil in pan. Must use parchment paper & line the pan for easy cleanup, important step!
- Set oven to 400*.
- After lining pan lay strips of bacon on parchment paper.
- Put in preheated 400* for 15 minutes, I turn bacon over after 10 minutes.
- Take out when crispy & lay on paper towels.
- When pan cools roll up tinfoil & parchment paper & throw away, no pan to wash!
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!

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.

BAKED BACON (OVEN FRIED BACON)
Serves 100; allow 3 slices per serving. Reduce bacon by 6 lbs. for 2 slices per person. I used bacon I got over the meat counter in the store, so it was thicker. There were 12 slices per pound, so ask your butcher to weigh a pound and then count the slices. That way you'll have the correct amount. The bread is only here because I need more then one ingredient to post this. I like to fix ours this way when we have BLT's. Then all the bacon is still warm when we sit down to eat.

Steps:
- Oil not needed, only for a second ingredient so it would post.
- Arrange slices in rows, across pans with fat edges slightly overlapping lean edges.
- Bake 375 degrees without turning 20-25 minutes (depending on thickness) until bacon is slightly crisp.
- I have been draining the grease and flipping the bacon, then back in the oven for 5 minutes or so.
- Watch closely.
- DO NOT OVERCOOK.
- Drain or skim off excess fat at needed.
- Drain thoroughly on paper towels.
- For those with a convection oven use 325 degrees 20-25 minutes.
- The longer you bake after 20 minutes the greater the risk of producing a dry, burnt piece of bacon.
Tips:
- Use a wire rack set inside a baking sheet to elevate the bacon and allow the grease to drip off.
- Line the baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
- Flip the bacon halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
- Do not overcrowd the baking sheet, or the bacon will not cook evenly.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the bacon. It should be 145°F for slightly crispy bacon, 155°F for crispy bacon, and 165°F for well-done bacon.
- Transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain off any excess grease.
- Let the bacon cool slightly before serving.
Conclusion:
Oven-fried bacon is a delicious and easy way to cook bacon without all the mess and cleanup of traditional pan-frying. By following these tips, you can make perfect oven-fried bacon every time.
