Kitchen Quick Tips - Easy Bacon Cooking Cleanup

kitchen quick tips

Line a baking sheet with foil wrap.  Place bacon directly on the foil wrap or on a wire rack for self draining.  Bake or grill at 400ºF until cooked.  An alternative a friend recently showed us is to cook directly on the grill without the pan.  Both methods will cook a lot of bacon in a short period of time with very little cleanup afterwards.

Doesn't the bacon spatter a lot in the oven though?

My brother cooked some on a grill for us in August and we were surprised at how straight it stayed.

The bacon splatters a little but not as much as expected. I was quite surprised. It definitely splatters more in a fry pan!
