3 Tricks For SUPER CRISPY BACON: The Best Way To Cook Bacon In The Oven

[@WholesomeYum]

Have you cooked bacon in the oven this way before, or do you do it differently?

[@WholesomeYum]

@@Tashi-tect so glad to hear that! ❤️

[@melinphx1]

Yes! I’m not sure where I first heard about this (might’ve been on Good Eats or something similar). I’ve been cooking bacon in the oven since 2015… total game changer for me, since I could only cook it in the microwave before that (can’t stand the hot grease popping and stinging me while trying to fry in a pan). Bacon from the microwave is ok, but it just doesn’t get it as crispy as cooking in the oven.

I have Cooked it this way before, but it pops all over my oven. Had to reclean it. It is fast. Just don't like the mess left in my oven.

[@jenneyryan]

Looks easy!

[@NU4026]

Love it!!

[@asdisskagen6487]

I know this is an older video, but it's the one I keep returning to over and over; it's the best, most simple method to cook large batches of crisp bacon with a minimum of cleanup. Thank you for your post.

My first time making bacon in the over. I just subscribed to your blog. I pray 🙏 i get great videos. I have watched alot of different videos and yours won thank you blessings 🙌 🙏

I've been oven baking bacon for awhile. I don't have a rack and that looks like such a good idea. I also bake eggs in the oven on a sheet pan, so easy to make bacon and eggs for the hungry masses. I have 4 sons.

[@georgechmielewski3035]

Wow. I'll never prep bacon any other way. It took me your technique and 73 years to get bacon right. Thank you Mrs. Yum.

S’all good baby boy!

[@romanogold82]

Thanks Maya! The only way I cook bacon is on the oven so the rack is definitely a game changer! All I gotta do now is learn how to make a bacon weave lol

[@susanshaver912]

I don't use a rack, and double each strip over so I can cook twice as much bacon at a time. When done take it off the tray quickly and drain on paper towels. I put it in a plastic bag in the freezer and when I get the munchies I take out a piece and eat it cold!

[@patriciacepauskas9728]

I cook my bacon in the oven too with the same pan with rack. Instead of foil, I us parchment paper cut so it goes up sides and also helps direct fat into a container. My added trick is to spray rack with spray coconut oil top and bottom and use a small vegetable brush to clean rack. Makes for super easy clean up. I also save some of fat in the fridge for other cooking.

[@WholesomeYum]

Thank you for sharing those tips, Patricia!

[@jameshall1648]

[@WholesomeYum]

Yes, my favorite way to cook it for sure!!

[@preciouscoleis]

Thank you for your time. I'm trying this is the morning. 🙂

[@WholesomeYum]

Awesome! How was it?

[@andrewilliams8314]

Pre heat oven first?

[@lyndawallace8741]

Thank you for your recipes, I've just learnt how to make bacon this way and I like drizzling substitute honey over-the-top yum😋

[@WholesomeYum]

Thank you, Lynda! Sounds delicious!

[@DebBonser]

Anything with bacon is awesome

[@collettehoward7217]

So excited to try

[@Roni90317]

I cook mine in the oven too and save the grease just like you do. I haven't used the rack yet so I'll do that next time for sure!

[@WholesomeYum]

Let me know what you think!

[@jmack619]

@@WholesomeYum OK, wat about the oven mess ?

[@conradkostelecky7935]

Some things to try is drizzle a little real maple syrup over it half way through and another to try is crumbling some brown sugar over the bacon . YUM!

[@bobsaye4889]

The BCLT is a BLT where one piece of the bread is cheddar cheese toast.

[@WholesomeYum]

How interesting, I'll have to try that sometime.

[@feliciabueno9059]

Thanks for watching!

[@smcgovern7144]

Where can I find the rack and pan combo? Local stores don’t carry it.

[@WholesomeYum]

Hi, here is the one I use: amzn.to/3neXisG

[@vilhelmhammershoi3871]

Bacon on sandwiches and of course, with eggs!

[@pampease3793]

What about the oven mess? Am I doing something wrong? It was absolutely horrible! Had to run the self-clean cycle before using the oven again.

[@KittyKat-xn7fy]

I agree ! I was oven cooking my bacon until I noticed what it was doing to the inside of my oven! The mess was incredible & I hate a dirty oven! Had to go back to pan frying...

[@shirleyandreas7480]

One lady said no rack because it is hard to clean

[@WholesomeYum]

It's not hard to clean with the rack I have (linked in description) but it would be if your rack is not nonstick.

[@sandyturner6269]

B L T sandwich

[@WholesomeYum]

Yummm!

[@TravelingSag]

BLT’s today!

[@WholesomeYum]

My fave!!

[@swapwap1]

Dust with flour before you put in oven

[@noraferguson8313]

Spray oil the rack and bacon will not stick.

[@WholesomeYum]

Thanks for the tip, Nora! Mine stuck a little but was still pretty easy to remove.

[@emgeezef]

I hate the clean up of this. The rack is awful. I think I prefer the parchment paper.
