How to Cook Bacon in the Oven

With this website we are going to do a lot of “How to’s”, because sometimes the prep work with recipes requires you to do something different from the norm.

How many of you cook bacon in the oven? Me..the microwave or a skillet. So, even though this is super simple to do, it’s worth mentioning. Serves 8 

Ingredients:

2 lbs of thick cut bacon (preferably from the butcher)

Directions:

Place racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 400°. Divide bacon between 2 wire racks set inside large foil-lined rimmed baking sheets. Bake, rotating baking sheets front to back and top to bottom halfway through, until brown and crisp, 35–50 minutes (depending on the thickness). Transfer to paper towels to drain.
