When it comes to cooking bacon, the oven is often overlooked in favor of the stovetop or microwave. However, baking bacon in the oven has several advantages. First, it's a more hands-off method, allowing you to multitask while the bacon cooks. Second, it results in evenly cooked bacon with less mess than pan-frying. Finally, baking bacon in the oven produces crispy, flavorful bacon that is perfect for breakfast, sandwiches, salads, and more.

Check out the recipes below so you can choose the best recipe for yourself!

OVEN-BAKED BACON

I always bake bacon in the oven! You just need to plan a bit ahead as the bacon takes longer. With baking, the bacon grease stays nice and clean and you can reuse it to saute vegetables or eggs for extra flavor.

OVEN BACON



Oven Bacon image

Cooking bacon in the oven gives you perfectly crispy slices without any flipping or fussing, and the cleanup is superspeedy. It's also the best way to make bacon for a crowd. You can cook the bacon directly on aluminum foil-lined baking sheets or on a wire rack set on top of the baking sheets. The latter method will give you extracrispy bacon, but you'll have to wash that greasy rack. Your choice!

Provided by Ali Slagle

Categories     breakfast, meat, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 1

1 pound bacon

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Arrange the bacon in a single layer on 2 aluminum foil-lined rimmed baking sheets, or, for extracrispy bacon, arrange on 2 wire racks set over 2 foil-lined rimmed baking sheets.
  • Bake until the bacon is browned and starts to ripple, or to desired doneness, 10 to 20 minutes. (Because the cook time depends on the thickness of the bacon and how you like it cooked, start checking doneness at the 10-minute mark.)
  • Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

PERFECT OVEN-COOKED BACON



Perfect Oven-Cooked Bacon image

This recipe differs from others in method - it produces bacon slices which are perfectly flat - better for sandwiches and some recipes which call for cooked bacon. You will not be using the 1/4 teaspoon water. Food.com will not let you upload a recipe that only has one ingredient, so I had to make up a second ingredient. I tried putting in "love" but it wouldn't let me. You should always be cooking with love, btw.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 lb bacon
1/4 teaspoon water

Steps:

  • DO NOT pre-heat the oven.
  • You will not be using the 1/4 teaspoon water. I had to add it to the ingredients list because Food.com will not let you upload a recipe that only has one ingredient, so I had to make up a second ingredient.
  • Place the bacon in a single layer on a cold, rimmed baking sheet. If you like, you can line the pan with parchment paper to make clean-up easier, but I like to save my bacon grease to cook with, and the parchment makes it difficult to get it all out of the baking sheet, so I just leave the pan unlined.
  • Place the pan on the center rack of a cold oven. Set the oven to 400ยบ.
  • Cook for 15 to 20 minutes. Very thin bacon will only take about 15 minutes, thick-cut bacon will take 20. After 15 minutes, keep an eye on the bacon to make sure it is not getting too brown.
  • Immediately remove the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Blot the top of the bacon with paper towels to remove extra grease.
  • If you like, save the bacon grease in a heat-proof container. The grease can be stored in the fridge and used later in other recipes - you just got two products for the price of one :).

BAREFOOT CONTESSA'S OVEN ROASTED BACON



Barefoot Contessa's Oven Roasted Bacon image

This is the best way to cook bacon. It cooks more evenly this way and more importantly, it requires little attention. The most wonderful part is you don't have grease spatters on your stove!

Provided by Juenessa

Categories     Breakfast

Time 22m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

8 -10 slices centre cut apple-smoked bacon
black pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Place a sheet of parchment paper on a sheet pan.
  • Lay the bacon on top of the parchment paper.
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the bacon is really crispy.
  • Drain on paper towels and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bacon: Not all bacon is created equal. For best results, choose thick-cut bacon with a good amount of marbling. This will help the bacon cook evenly and prevent it from becoming dry and crispy.
  • Preheat your oven: This will help the bacon cook quickly and evenly. The ideal oven temperature for cooking bacon is 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Line your baking sheet with parchment paper: This will make cleanup a breeze. You can also use a silicone baking mat, but parchment paper is a more affordable option.
  • Arrange the bacon in a single layer: Don't crowd the bacon on the baking sheet. This will prevent it from cooking evenly.
  • Bake the bacon for 15-20 minutes: The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of your bacon and how crispy you like it. Keep an eye on the bacon and remove it from the oven when it reaches your desired doneness.
  • Drain the bacon on paper towels: This will help remove excess grease from the bacon.

Conclusion:

Cooking bacon in the oven is a great way to get perfectly crispy bacon without all the mess. It's also a healthier way to cook bacon, as it reduces the amount of fat and calories. So next time you're craving bacon, give this oven-baked method a try. You won't be disappointed!
