What You'll Need For This Bacon Recipe

  • Bacon
  • Tongs

Here's a Simple Recipe for Frying Bacon

Recipe Instructions:

  1. Place your skillet or griddle pan on the stove, setting the heat temperature to medium or high (I prefer medium). Since bacon contains plenty of fat naturally, you will not need to grease your pan before cooking.
  2. Open a new package of bacon and take out as many strips as you like. This is important...remove the rest of the bacon from the package and wrap it in aluminum foil and place it in your refrigerator. Note: As aways, before proceeding to the next step wash your hands since you just handling raw meat.
  3. When the skillet or pan is sufficiently heated it's time to fry up the bacon. Place the strips of bacon onto the skillet or griddle pan using the tongs. The bacon will begin to sizzle once placed in the pan. Wait a few minutes until you begin to notice the bacon curling at which time turn it over with a tong. Don't stand too close to the pan as the grease from the bacon may pop up and burn you.
  4. Once your strips of bacon have browned to your liking, remove them from the pan with the tong and place them onto a few paper towel placed on a plate. Allow the bacon to drain and somewhat cool before touching.

While you're waiting for the bacon to cool its okay to cook up you a couple of eggs.

Now that you know how to fry bacon you should also considering baking it too.

If you're looking for a tasty way to start your day, baking bacon is the way to go. Not only does it create perfectly crisp and evenly cooked strips every time, but it also bakes in its own fat, so there's no need for messy frying or splattering grease.

Baking also requires minimal effort from the cook – all you have to do is lay out the bacon on a baking tray, pop it in the oven and wait for it to crisp up.

Compared to long-winded stovetop frying, this is definitely a faster and easier way to enjoy a plate of delicious bacon. So ditch the skillet and give baking your bacon a try for your next breakfast!
