Angela,
I love this idea and I’ll have to give it a try. I was curious did you notice if the bacon spits and spatters in the oven like it does on the stove or does the slower cooking process eliminate that?

Thanks!

I’ve cooked bacon in the oven, but unlike Kayla I find it a way bigger mess than on the stove top because grease splatters on the sides and top of the oven and I end up on my hands and knees cleaning the oven before I dare cook anything else in it. GREG

I will have to try this. I recently read a recipe for making bacon on the stove top where you start with bacon and water in the pan (I used a griddle), let it boil and then lower heat to let it cook. The fat renders and the bacon is tender and not overly crisp/burnt.

Since we were trying to cook a full pound, my son tried making some of the bacon in the microwave. Much of the grease rendered and was absorbed by the surrounding paper towels – but the bacon was not crisp. So then we threw it on the griddle for a few minutes and it crisped up as nicely as the stovetop/water version – also tender and not burnt.

Both methods resulted in delicious bacon – but the micro/stovetop combo took less time than the boiling in water on stove top. Now I will have to try the oven version and see how that compares. I love when cooking becomes a science experiment, lol.

I love cooking bacon in the oven as well! It makes clean up so much easier! Especially at holidays when you have a large number of people for breakfast it makes it much easier in the oven. Glad to hear you do that also! BTW – your biscuits are the BEST EVER!
