I like bacon but I hate cooking it. So I only give in maybe once or
twice a year. I've tried the cooking sheet in the oven. Restaurants here
do it that way. It works good but makes a real mess of your oven. So I
want to know how you cook your bacon? Is there a way to cook it without
getting the grease everywhere?
Thanx
Joanna

I put a couple of paper towels over the bacon in the pan and cook
slowly. Make sure the slices are not wet (sometimes they can pick up
extra moisture if sitting in an opened package.) The paper towels
would probably work fine in the oven too. But actually the slow
temperature does a lot to reduce spitting.

Do you have a microwave? That's the fastest and easiest for clean up. You
simply put a folded in half paper towel on a plate (paper or other), place
some strips of bacon on the towel and cover them with another paper towel.
How long and what power level? Well. That depends on your microwave. Ours
can turn anything into a fossil in less than a minute. Begin with one minute
at about 7 power and continue until you're there.
To keep the microwave fresh and clean: put about 6 cups of water in the
big Big measuring cup; add a splash of lemon juice and let it come to a boil
in the microwave. Leave the door closed for a little while after you've
'cooked' your lemon/water. The resulting steam will help you when you just
wipe down the insides later. HTH Polly

Oh Polly, are you ever in trouble with The HairyButt Gang! I usually fry my
bacon and they each get a tablespoon of the grease. I made bread yesterday
and had a couple of tomatoes left in my garden, so I *had* to have a BLT for
lunch- with microwaved bacon.
They are still lined up sitting in the kitchen waiting for their bacon
grease. Do ya think I can teach them to suck the bacon grease from the
paper towels?

No, they'll (the dogs, anyway) most likely just scarf the towels down.
It's probably not all that good for them either, but that's your
choice.
