I’ve been making this for years, only much easier!! Put bacon on foil-covered cookie sheet and place in a COLD oven. Turn to 425, close oven an take out in 16 minutes (if bacon is fairly thick). Let the grease solidify, gather the foil and throw it out. VERY easy— we love it. If your oven runs hot or is real new, I suggest you check it out in 14 minites.

amazing! with a crispy exterior, yet still juicy on the interior. I always worry about under-cooking bacon in the skillet and of oil splatter issues, so cooking it in the oven all at once with minimal effort was beautiful. There is more control over the cooking intensity and also the bacon doesn't come out dry and incinerated, but still has crispy edges.
This recipe told me what I needed to know in super simple terms.
That's exactly how I cook bacon - perfection every time and much less clean-up. The bacon grease stays nice and white as well.
I bake it at a higher temp. 400 I use tinfoil and it s a easy clean up. May take less time.
I read several reviews, but didn't see a suggestion to line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, put bacon on a grate over it to cook. Grease drips off, toss the foil when grease has congealed.
I always do bacon in the oven and only difference is that I place the bacon on a cooling rack over the pan.
I will NEVER make bacon any other way! After the 40 minutes of baking when I take them out I drizzle with real New York Maple Syrup and let them sit 5 minutes before serving...O My Lord..take me now! Thank you and God bless! Laura:-)
Tip - Make sure you use a heavy duty baking sheet one that doesn t warp. Be careful when taking the baking sheet from out of the oven that the oil does spill over the sheet.
I use aluminum foil to bake my bacon. I fry up a big package and refrig the rest for use during the week. Quick sandwiches and recipe ingredient ready for use. Pour off the grease and most of the time I could just put the baking sheets back in the cabinet. Very little mess and clean up.
It's apparent you do not pre cook your recipes before publishing. Cover with tinfoil and bake at 400f and bacon should be done in twenty minutes? Try one half hour and it still wasn't to my liking. In addition to grease in the oven (spatters it wasn't) I had to clean the oven. I'll go back to microwaving. One word for this recipe disgusting.
