Reply to comment by Skysis in Hot bacon [homemade] by Turtleramem

Baked in an oven is the only way to do it. 375f for 15-18 depending on crispiness.

And no splatter mess on the counter

And it stays flat. Also, use cooling racks on the sheet to keep the bacon from sitting in grease.

We do 400F for 15, flip the bacon, and then back in for a long as needed to crisp up. Also start with a cold over to better render the fat!

I've never owned a Microwave until we bought a house last year, I always did bacon in the oven.

The microwave is just better.

I cant imagine bacon coming out of the microwave not still being raw

It comes out fine if you want a couple pieces at a time and mic it long enough. A fucking waste of time though. Just slam a pound or two in the oven and use the microwave to reheat for a few seconds the next day.

Oven bacon was really good back when microwave ovens were huge and we could put a bacon rack in there. They’re now too small imo to do it well.

It takes 3.5 minutes to have crispy microwave bacon, I do it ad hoc now (vs when I would oven bake two sheet pans to have cooked bacon for the week)
