Didn't think frying bacon could get any better? We prove it can.
Here’s a simple way how to make bacon that’s crisp and tender instead of dry and crumbly. Make crispy bacon with no risk of overcooking. Bacon cooked in water? It works!
Place the bacon (in strips or cut into pieces) and just enough water to cover it in a skillet over high heat. When the water reaches a boil, lower the heat to medium. Once all of the water has simmered away, turn down the heat to medium-low and continue cooking until the bacon is crisp and well browned. When we tried this method, the meat plumped up as it cooked instead of shriveling, leaving the bacon pleasantly crisp yet moist, not tough or brittle.
The addition of water keeps the initial cooking temperature low and gentle, so the meat retains its moisture and stays tender. By the time the water reaches its boiling point (212 degrees), the bacon fat is almost completely rendered, so you’re also much less likely to burn the meat while waiting for the fat to cook off.

Been cooking bacon for 40 years, tried this a couple times now and admit that it does make the best bacon.
Happy Father's Day! This Morning, Treat Dad to the Most Perfect Bacon, Ever: ruclips.net/video/2guC4Badq2s/видео.html
Just had my bacon done this way for my father's day breakfast. Worked like a charm.
Just cooked mine in a cast iron skillet and use a cast iron bacon press to keep flat. Delicious from first piece to the last. Key: don't remove the rendered fat between batches.
This is great for 3 pieces. When doing bacon for a large family or group (15+ pieces) its impractical.
***** You posted this a couple years ago and I've been doing it since. It's the best!
Still use my 350F. oven rack 12 minutes method......perfectly flat....perfectly cooked without any shrink.
Just tried this, but added Japanese BBQ sauce to the water. So good I'm dancing around my living room, no music playing, eating bacon & groovin'. 🤤🤣
This works great. It does take longer, but you just start it before you start mixing up your pancake mix or whatever elaborate breakfast you are making anyway. Like all good cooking, it is about the timing (it is similar to, and takes about as long as boiling the water for pasta or potatoes). This is for a weekend breakfast/brunch. I also tried it with quite a bit less water and it seemed to work fine in less time. This is for people that like to cook. Enjoy the process...
Pro tio: use a skillet big enough to lay the bacon completely flat before adding water.. or cut the bacon to fit yours if you don't have one.
When cooking anything, I always make a sacrifice of time for better flavor or texture
The fact that I literally had pancake mix in hand as I read this comment 💀💀💀
I don’t understand all the negative feedback and often from people who haven’t tried it. We should encourage people who go to see the trouble of making such videos often just to help other people. If we put them down they are not motivated to do them. The great thing about RUclips is these people.
It works! It doesn’t take that long and is yummy with all the fat cooked off!! Don’t be hating out there… try and support to see if it works and it does!
Well said. If you don't like it stop watching! Could you imagine how negative these people's minds are? Not just to the outside world, but to themselves too. It must be a nightmarish existence.
It’s ok, the people in the video are enjoying better bacon than the haters
I followed this method for a few years after seeing this video. I definitely liked the result -- the bacon gets cooked more evenly than with normal pan-frying. But it took forever to cook an entire package of bacon this way. I've now switched to baking on parchment paper, and I don't miss this method at all.
I’m trying that! Thanks 😊
@@jakethedog4397 This is how I cook mine as well. Bacon on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Place in cold oven, set heat to 400 F, thin bacon about 12 minutes, thick bacon closer to 20. Or do a quick search for the bacon method.
I put a wire rack over the parchment paper and do it in the oven 200C (400F) for 15-20 minutes depending on thickness
Anthony Bourdaine recommended baking for bacon also.
Can anyone tell me if it’s messy in the oven? I’d rather clean my stovetop than my oven.
Alternatively, use the pan lid and add only enough water to form steam. This will still help distribute the temperature a lot and you'll get more even cooking in lots of kinds of "dry" foods.
Nice!
THIS
Yes, I just cover with lid and don't add water and notice it does cook better
Use one of the dimpled crock pot lids for even water dripping.
I thought I invented that with an IKEA frying pan in 2005 but it turns out that India has been doing it for thousands of years
Started for breakfast, finished for lunch
😂😂😂😂😂
Lunch? I finish at dinner.
In just 2 hours you too can have perfectly crisp bacon.
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
I cook mine in the oven, just as good! I saved the bacon grease for refried beans. SO good!
Love!! Can you share how you collect the bacon grease?
Drain it into a strainer..store in jar in cabinet
I just did this bacon, and the result is that: a) Yes you spend more time cooking it and b) It does not matter, the bacon was so perfect I almost couldn't comprehend it with my human brain. The texture, the flavor, the fat and the meat were on the whole bacon, and I just need to tell you that your life will not be the same if you try it.
BloodManticore24 you have successfully tempted me...
Andre P same
Thank you for this comment good sir
so you liked it???? ;)
i can make this with out all the hassle, just use low heat and keep a lid on the skillet to trap in its own natural moisture
You can do this by starting with a cold pan and simply cooking the bacon over Med-Low heat.. same result, 1/3 of the time
Exactly.
Much better grilling bacon, not frying.
Never saw water fried something 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 how stupid people can be 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And the guy who put a like on it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 this world is fucked i tell u
Personally I use medium-high heat. But the main thing is not to use too high heat, the more heat the faster it burns and you want it to get crispy over time and not instant (burnt). It should take about 5 min in a hot pan (medium to high) to get it nice and crispy. If your own settings goes from 1 to 9, 6 to 6+ should be enough. Just remember to have some butter in the pan when you start (about 25 grams)
Really great way to do bacon (especially the thick-cut kind). The water cooks off a lot faster than you'd think, and they're absolutely right about the tender, crisp texture. This method is for people who care about their bacon!
@@Chugwater_Cowboy lol
I luv me bacon 🥓
No they dont
I once scoffed at this method... but I finally tried it this morning and the bacon was PERFECTION. Crisp, evenly cooked, and still juicy with a pleasing chew. It was, without a doubt, the best bacon I ever cooked (my usual method is just med heat in a pan until browned). However, this method also took about 20 minutes, instead of the usual 6-8 minutes. I think next time I'll experiment by just cooking it on med-low without water from the beginning to see if the water makes a difference or if it's just the long, low cooking.
hawaiidispenser How did you get on with method? I would anticipate the moisture evaporating cooking on low, and without water. Bacon hitting high heat should keep in the moisture. Did you find it was dry?
iamaaccount account You’re why people hate vegans. Mind your own damn business
iamaaccount account Animals are ours if we buy them dumbass. Go free a cow, lol
And there you go: feedback from someone who actually tried it. Thank you! I did, too, and had the same amazing result!
how to spend 25 minutes making 3 slices of bacon
Lol
right lol
paintball130 waste of time😂
Gives me time to let the wine breathe for poaching my eggs.
COME TO JAMAICA
First attempt absolutely perfect. Best ever. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks, after spending the last 20 years cooking my bacon exclusively with the sun and a magnifying glass I was looking for a way to finally shave 30 seconds off the cooking time
🤪😂🤣
You’re funny
You've won with this hahahahhaha
Vous et so droll 😂😂😂
Won the internet today
Bake it on a cookie sheet (with edges to hold the oil) lined with parchment paper. Flip half-way through cooking. Comes out evenly cooked and each piece lays perfectly flat.
Is flat bacon the goal? I like mine curled up crisp
@@elleohaiif you want blts it helps
Do you flip it while it's in the water or after the water evaporates?
I just set it on a medium low heat so it slowly cooks while I'm making coffee or prepping other foods. I keep it constantly low and it turns out beautifully. Doesn't take long, either. I think the main mistake people make is impatience which makes them turn the heat up too high. I know the sweet spot on the temp dial for a particular burner, half way between really low and medium for my stove, put a splatter screen on top and only turn it a few times. Easy peasy.
Same. Or I cook in the oven when I making a bunch
Just tried. Took a little longer (~20 min, but results were inarguably perfect
That is the best bacon I have ever had. I had really nice, thick cut bacon and it even worked with that ~ what a great method, thank you so, so much!!!
i just use the oven, comes out crispy all the time and with the container i use the greese drips into the the tray as it cooks, makes it so easy.
Please send this video to EVERY breakfast buffet chef in Europe !!!
I don't like crispy bacon it destroys the meaty taste
@@andrevanroy3099 Same. Bacon hasn't been the same since moving to the US. It sucks.
Right on man! You have family coming over, do you want to make some bacon and eggs? This is the way. Works fabulous.
In England, we used to call this boiled bacon. About 400 years ago, someone said, 'Hey, guess what...if you remove the water, it cooks real quick'.
lol
Hahaha
Good things take time and are worth the wait for those who value quality over convenience. Thank you chef!
This does work (I’m not a cook by any stretch of the imagination) and my bacon turned out exactly the way I wanted. It does indeed take longer so I’ll by trialling some of the suggestions in the comments, but if you want to avoid bacon that turns into brittle strips, this is a reliable method.
I bake my bacon in the oven, comes out perfect every time.
I’ve done this in restaurants cooking full sheet pans of bacon at a time. By far the best method.
Yup U'all, works every time.
What’s your method in the oven?
@@beewise3193 In the restaurant I worked we had a high end convection oven ($10,000) that cooked everything like a dream. At home a conventional oven works fine, you just want to dial it to where the bacon comes out slightly undercooked because the carryover will take it to absolute perfection without making it too crispy 👌. Try 375° F for idk 10-12 minutes and make adjustments to find the perfect bacon. Good quality thick cut bacon is also a game changer here. People seem to think bacon is unhealthy. It’s only unhealthy if you get low quality stuff because it will most always have nitrates as a preservative. Once you buy high quality bacon you can’t go back because it’s really that much better (look in crowdcow.com or butcherbox.com etc.) Also with the oven method you don’t have to flip the bacon while cooking.
@@Wormuloid4157 Exactly...
I followed this step by step. I ended up with a delicious bowl of bacon soup.
use less water Panky
😝😂🤣
One of the steps is cook off the water.
Whoops?
As you should.
Herbie.😂😂😂😂😂
One second. If I'm making a buttload and need to add more once the first batch is done cooking do I just pour water in the pan again and repeat?
Flavorless bacon in just double the time!
😂😂😂
Exactly
😂😂😂👍
lol
Because all the water has boiled off it will still be flavorful.
The "using the grease" after thing was EXACTLY what I was wondering. Great video! Quick and to the point.
I have never heard of this method. Currently I am using an air fryer. But this looks like it doesn't cook away too much of the bacon.
The best result is to start with a cold pan and keep it on low heat. It takes longer but perfect results. Flat, crispy, chewy, and fat rendered. Also boiling the grease in water makes it weird to reuse it. This way you have a pan full of awesome liquefied bacon fat and ideal stripps
I fo a cold skillet with medium low heat and thick cut bacon and the results are a m a z i n g
Or you can boil the kettle (1 min) while the pan heats up and make a cuppa at the same time. Whisk 4 eggs to make French toast as the bacon cooks then use the leftover bacon fat to cook the toast in the pan to give it a crossover bacon flavor. Use the left over eggs to make a small omlette while you cut some tomatoes in half and let them cook while you make your cuppa. Time taken to make breakfast: 5-10 min.
So how much more cooking time goes into this procedure? Double from the standard method?
I tried this method and the bacon looses flavor!
I was a cook in the army. I been cooking for 12 plus years. I can say I learned something from this video. Never thought about cooking bacon like this. Good video.

You can never replace the fond memories of -heating up T'rats- cooking in an MKT though.
I know your comment was made 7 years ago, but I’m seeing it on July 4, 2022 and just want to say THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE, sir! Celebrating America, and our brave!
In the oven method-perfect every tme.
I agree. Started doing it in the oven after buying a whole pig and having a bunch of frozen bacon.
I call that method “College bacon” as that’s how they made it at college. Must try again. Thx
I've come to use it as well :)
Right!? I'm 66 I'm not willing to give up half of whatever time I have left to boil bacon
@@michelle47043 LMAO well said
I would never have thought of this. Thank you.
I add a couple of Knorr beef stockpots to the bacon and finish the cooking with a little Olivoil. You can do too - its really that simple - or not, it's your choice.......
Underrated comment.

Microwave ovens do wonders for bacon! Best crispy bacon ever!
Talk about getting to the point! Thank you for this concise video.
I have been doing this for years and I found it to be the best way as well!
I dont know what you do with bacon in the USA but in Australia ( back me up UK !) we are talkin about Minnimum 2 eggs a few mushrooms, a sausage or 2 , a tomato and maybe even some black or white pudding and thsts before you throw on toast and beans....IN THAT PAN!!! 😊 ( not in soup)
It takes about 10 minutes to "render" fat. You fry it at a medium heat turning occasionally until the fat is rendered. It makes a pop sound and turns more of white then browns the longer you cook. It's rendered as soon as it all pops. It really isn't hard. If you use to high of a heat it burns the meat before it renders the fat. Simply cook on a medium heat.
@@SimonWoodburyForget I like to flip and as long as there is enough oil/butter in the pan there should he no contact issue. Snip your bacon fat it then dosnt curl up and all stays touching the pan and oil. If you really want to get fancy they figured it out years and years ago. They invented the frying iron. Simply an iron like utensil that you place on top of the bacon or whatever your cooking and it holds it down. The beauty if them is they heat up and cook from both sides. No need to fix ehat is not broken my friend. 😘
@@SimonWoodburyForget the best way to cook bacon without work is to place on a baking tray generous oil or butter coating and simple overnight cook. This gives a uniform finish most of the time. You can fit more in. It's just generally done in restaurants etc for big batches it's not quite the same as frying. Deep frying would destroy the smoked flavour and is simply wrong in my opinion.
@@SimonWoodburyForget exactly but never deep fried. Glad you get it.
@@SimonWoodburyForget if you think it results in the same product I suggest never cooking again 🤣
My breakfast is saved thanks to this video
Or you could put thick-sliced Wright’s (or similar good quality bacon) on a rack on a sheet pan or just directly on the pan, slide it into a cold oven set to 400*, and remove it after 17 or so minutes. Perfect every time, no splattering mess, and you can do other stuff more conveniently while it’s cooking than any stovetop method. I’ve done it this way with the water in a skillet, it’s really good but no better. If you use a rack in the oven, it’s also better for you.
Made my oven a disaster to clean!
@@susans7091 Um... how?
I bake my bacon on a tin foil lined sheet pan. I eyeball the cooking process looking to partly cook one side then turning the bacon over to cook other side until desired crispiness. This method works very.well. It avoids standing over a pan waiting for the bacon to cook and easy cleanup as well. Oh Yea..save those drippings!
And how difficult is it to clean that clad cookware?
Man, I love bacon.
But can you wait for 30 minute or more while your eggs and toast is cold???
I use butter to cook my bacon, it's awesome.
Cooked on a sheet pan in the oven is the best. Bacon tastes awesome.
This does not change the fact that in Antarctica there are 21 million penguins and in Malta there are 502,653 inhabitants. So if the penguins decide to invade Malta, each Maltese will have to fight 42 penguins.
No they dont
Who the hell eats just 3 strips of bacon?
thin people
obviously not all the fat americans
I eat two., plus two eggs
And better not have a large family to cook for or you'll be there for hours.
I use 3 packets😂
This actually turned out really good. I thought it would take long, but it only took me about 15 minutes to finish.
Sorry, I ain't waking up an hour earlier just to make family breakfast.
Same here! Life already is too complicated! Why add to it?
Typical women these days 🙄
@Dumble Door lol they cant even cook now. Nor do they wanna. Whole games fucked
I've never cooked bacon using this water method, but I've always cooked it long and slow.
No splattering fat over the stove and I like the texture better.
I simply don't make it when I'm in a hurry. Just like I don't make pot roast for dinner when I'm in a hurry.
Sometimes I'll cook the bacon a day ahead. It warms up quickly in a pan.
Pan fry on a lower heat, and turn often. It comes out just fine. It only gets black and irregular when you try to cook on a higher heat and don't watch it. The lower heat works just fine for me.
This is how my mum used it cook it 50 years ago & yes it`s good !
Just start it in a cold pan, low heat and turn over a few times.
Don't use a cold pan if you're cooking with stainless steel though.
@@lukaswilson1437 why not

I want bacon right now!
THIS METHOD WORKED BEAUTIFULLY!!!! I DID THIS TWICE AND I HAD PERFECT BACON BOTH TIMES!!
My new favorite way to make bacon? Panini press... awesome every time!
I pre-cook my bacon a pound at a time. Keep it in the fridge till needed. Heat it in skillet on medium low heat. This takes just a few minutes, and it turns out GREAT. Saves time in the morning as your rushing out the door.
This is my favorite video on RUclips. This Bryan Roof person is a genius!
I usually do the oven method, but had one extra slice today that didn't fit on my pans, so I decided to try this new method that I saw on Facebook this week. The process took a LONG time. While this slice cooked, I cooked the rest of the pound and a batch of chocolate cookies! I'm very glad that I only used one slice, not a whole pound. It was crispy and chewy at the same time, but it lost all of its bacon flavor….the saltiness was completely boiled away. Usually I think ATK has some great ideas, but they struck out this time! If you decide to try it, cook only one slice, or you might be sad.
Thanks for your feedback. Another commenter also mentioned the flavor boiling away. Oven it is!
I'll stick with putting my bacon in a cold oven on 400° for 20 minutes
I don't like cleaning my oven that much. The grease will fly all around.
@@rashida7777 mine has never been a problem 1 time and that’s the only way I will cook my bacon 🥓
Comes out crunchy every single time. I put a silicone mat down first and forget about it.
@@rashida7777 Sounds like you use the broiler. Make a foil tin/shallow up-turned edges, bake @400° for 20 minutes, place baked slices on a paper towel to absorb excess rendered fat, & serve. No splatter, no mess, just let rendered fat cool & throw foil/paper towels in the trash.
Despite all the rude comments.. I tried this was great.. good things take time !

Simon WoodburyForget Nothing you’ve written is correct. A lot of typing just to prove you can’t cook
@@SimonWoodburyForget Santa is actually correct. He did not give a wall of text like you but everything you said is actually wrong. Oven baking bacon on sheet pans is the least messy, most efficient way to cook bacon, it doesn’t matter if it’s a convection oven or traditional oven. 350-375 for 30-45 minutes allows you to get the rest of the meal done while baking. It doesn’t matter if you use parchment or silpats or aluminum. Bacon cooked in an oven cooks consistently and evenly and requires minimum attention. I’ve been cooking professionally for almost 25 years and I’ve never been inside a professional restaurant that would prefer pan fried bacon over baked.
I do my bacon on an aluminum baking sheet on the middle rack of the oven turned on HIGH broil. Turn the bacon once. Take it out when it reached your desired crispiness. Does not make a mess of your oven.
I've tried this method and I gotta say it eliminates flavor. I still prefer baking it in the oven.
oven all day. once you figure out this trick, you never go back

I also understand what happiness is again from this. Not even to mention the most incredible part that is 2:10. Bacon spinning has changed my life for the better. It connects with the characters within the viewers, individuals suppressed within our own subconscious. It stays vibrant, fresh, and revolutionizes the art of storytelling and filmmaking while making a damn of statement on what it means to be human. Entertaining, gripping, and simply exhilarating. This might be the most impactful piece of art I’ve come across in my life, and I’m definitely coming back to it in the near future to study it more deeply. this is an absolute masterpiece , I was brought to tears listening to this and seeing the bacon go whirly swirly in a circle countless times. it absolutely moved my soul , and I don't think I can ever be the same. this bacon has changed my entire mental state , I am now at peace with who I am and what I will be doing later in my life. So much great graphic design, so much suspense, so much greatness in this one video. i have forgiven all my enemies and now I am a man of a pacifist life. I will move on , gotta move on , as the song says. the bacon is so inspirational , it shares it vast wisdom with all of us , and we are all so lucky that it would bestow it's great words with us. we are all children on bacon. hail bacon. hail bacon. The spinning bacon, rotating in one direction with this music... This made me tear up. How could such a bacon do such a thing? I'm struck by awe by this masterpiece. Especially when the bacon spins, showing its lightly salt covered tan skin. I can hear the crunch just from here, and so as the beautiful sound of the bacon scraping the dark, smooth velvet floor. The flavor, music and everything can be heard, tasted, seen and felt from a screen. You can really hear the breaths between the music artist, empathizing her love for this rotating bacon. Truly what I call modern art. This was the most legendary performance by any bacon I have ever watched. The acting was top tier and very life changing. This is one of the greatest work from a piece of bacon I have ever seen especially on 57:42. I am crying. This has made me go through an emotional rollercoaster. I cried, beat off, and also watched a movie while watching this premiere. This has made me go through so much. I passed depression because of this. It really inspired me to become an outstanding young man. Thank you.
Bro how is it that I’m watching this bacon video at almost midnight for tomorrow’s breakfast and I stumble across your comment 18 mins ago on this pretty old video… LOL

Wow! Next time I have a few extra hours on my hands, I'll give this a shot.
My way is easier. Line a jellyroll pan with foil or parchment. Place the slices of bacon on top. Bake at 400 degrees F for about 10-15 minutes, until meat is crispy and fat has been rendered. Place on paper towel and blot excess fat. As a bonus, strain and keep the bacon fat in the jellyroll pan to fry with.
The best way for sure. I love just being able to toss the parchment paper and bacon fat straight into trash, pan clean up is a cinch.
I have read a few times that one should never use aluminium foil in close proximity to food, especially if heat is involved, as it may cause Altzheimers. So I have banned it from my kitchen. Parchment paper is ok
@@goforgold7082 i think I read that somewhere too but I had forgotten about it.
@@goforgold7082 It is but the amount you absorb is so minimal that it has no effect on your body. In fact everything you eat has aluminum. Unless you have some kind of immune system disorder then yeah keep using foil.
@@Chugwater_Cowboy thanks for the input. Its really difficult nowadays to deceipher between what is good or bad for you as it changes constantly. One day butter is bad and the next day its not. For years I heard that you should drink 8 glasses of water a day, only to read the other day that it is completely senseless as the water will just pass through your system and that 2 glasses a day is sufficient
For the first time since I moved to this apartment, my smoke detector alarm didn’t go off! Big thumbs up!
It must take much longer. So then why not just fry it on abit lower heat. Then you dont risk it being burnt, and you dont have to wait for all the water to evaporate
For similar results, we cook our bacon on a special microwave bacon cooking tray.
It cooks the bacon perfectly, quickly, easily, drains the fat, can hold up to 7 slices at once, and is mess free.
Or you could just put it in the oven... makes perfect slices every time and you don't even have to watch it.
400 degrees for about 15 mins. (the cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the bacon)
Well, Imana give that a try.
I quite like bacon dry and crumbly.
What you're left with is flavorless bacon! Just start with a cold pan on medium heat and don't over cook it!
Add some oil and seasoning for flavor then?
@@Cd5ssmffan no need. Bacon is the flavoring
Tip you can also do it and just keep it on high heat, once water is evaporated turn the bacon regularly for me it takes about the same time as making it regularly
Who needs school when there's RUclips?
FlowTv Comedy stupid people
You can learn heart surgery on RUclips?
Indeed!
Yes but some youtube classes r deadly....
A good way to leave the flavour of the bacon stuck to the bottom of the pan
Exactly what I was thinking. "wait for the fat to cook off..." WHAT?
Fried and egg or make a toast on that pan.
eyegrinder94 He was just talking about the fat being rendered completely.
MrKleenexDude I know, but when I wrote the comment it felt like he meant cooking it AWAY, which I cannot say I'd condone.
eyegrinder94 Technically that's what rendering does. It turns the fat into grease.
This really works good and it stops the bacon from curling up which I always had trouble with.
I bet if you used bourbon instead of water, that would be really good
You made me drool with that idea.
i will try it
FL Barnes Please let us know how it turns out. I confess, I'm most curious :)
yeah i will
DOING IT. Next episode. Tomorrow we're filming it, we'll air it this Sunday. Bourbon perfect bacon, yessss...
Can't get enough of these baconhacks. We've been using twitter and a bunch of other BS... the real gold... was always RUclips...
I do this with sausage, why didn’t I think of that.....
Friend did this with frozen sausages. They were terrific.
Can you dry brine for 12-24 hours before the freeze? It's always a pain to wait for meat to be almost fully thawed and then wait another day for the brine time.
Plate, two pieces of paper towel, microwave makes the best bacon for me in minutes
sometimes i use the nice clear bacon grease under the towel for my cast iron cooking.
Not the best of ideas for those of us who collect bacon grease for cooking fat.
Gerald Lee
I don't think enough people do this. Sad...
why not? When the water evaporates, the fat is left behind, as it evaporates way slower at the temperatures that water boils at.
If anything, it's even better for collecting bacon grease, since you don't risk that much burning the grease while waitin for it to render out.
If you are collecting bacon grease for the cooktop, that theory doesn't measure up to the practice, try it yourself.
How long does it take? Coz I can make brittle bacon in like... 4 minutes and it's still yummy
Life hack: try baking it on a sheet pan
Screw this. I'm not waiting 45min for bacon. I want it now!
Wow. You can hear the crunch through the video
5 minutes in the microwave inside an envelope of paper towel enough to cover one dish. Done.crispy.
I love how everyone is trolling this video.
Everyone that haven't tried it and be exposed to pure paradise, that is.🙄
Agreed. You have to EARN the most perfect strips of bacon ever.
I tried it and it tasted like washed bacon, plus it stuck to the pan and I had to shovel it off.
@@lzl4226 you did it wrong then 👍🏿 stuck to your pan??? How lol
