    Before you open a pack of bacon, roll the pack up like a towel, it will easily separate without sticking and tearing.

    Imho, that whole food pyramid thing is upside down. I eat bacon every single day. Meat, bacon, butter, eggs = healthiest person I know staying away from all the ultra processed chemicals & stuff. Exactly how I make my bacon too... suuuuper crispy, yum! ENJOY! :)

    Awesome video. Thanks for showing us how to do this. We are trying to eat at home now, because it is TOO EXPENSIVE to eat out anymore. We're not gonna pay $20+ / $25+ per person just to have a sit-down meal at a burger joint. Honestly, we don't eat anything fancy -- that's just fast food now, so cooking at home is 5 times (or more) cheaper.

    If my bacon is crunchy, it's overcooked. Love my bacon chewy. I've never cooked bacon in the oven. I cook it LOW and SLOW in a fry pan. And I save the rendered fat for cooking other things!

    I need to try this next time I buy bacon. If I do bacon for bacon and eggs, I tend to use the skillet so I can fry the eggs in the rendered bacon fat but I'd definitely do bacon this way if I want to fry up a whole pack of bacon for snacking on throughout the day. 😀

    I have tried parchment paper, I prefer aluminum foil. I put a little water in the pan to slow things down. Apparently there are several stages to bacon cooking and to extend the sub 230 degree phase make better tasting bacon. All that said, I have made bacon in the microwave, frying pan, and air fryer and all methods work.

    Actually, bacon IS a very healthy food, as long as you avoid the sugary (maple, e.g.) varieties. Hypotheses about fat, salt, and nitrates have been shot down by recent, honest research. I enjoy it without worry -- and probably not as often as I should.

    Two things: First, cold oven set to 390°. It takes a few minutes more, but you don't have that slightly overcooked bacon smell in the house for hours. Second, use heavy duty aluminum foil instead of parchment. Leave the foil sides raised up to reduce spatter in the oven, and you can then save the grease for other things. It's best to take the bacon out when you think it's just slightly underdone if you're going to freeze. That way the reheating will finish the cooking.

Turned it haIfway through. The bacon came out fIat and nice. I didn't think I couId save by IoveIy bacon grease when using parchment but it gave me very cIean grease that didn't need to be strained. The bacon didn't stick to the PP.

    I once got a pack of bacon that was SO THINLY SLICED that one of those slices you have there would have made three of mine. Paper thin. I hate to admit that I was so angry trying to get it open that I just shredded it apart and I think even tossed it away, though I think I may have saved it to put into a big pot of green beans. (This was back before the bidenflation hell we're suffering with now).
