What would you say is the best way to cook bacon? My grandma taught me to flour it first and ever since then, any other way just isn't near as good to me! How do you like your bacon cooked?

I spread mine out on a hugh baking sheet and bake it at 385 degrees for about 15 minutes, or until crispy. No fuse, just the greese to pour off later.

That's different... never even thought to cook it in the oven! Thanks for the response!

I have 2 ways that I like my bacon.

Cooking way #1

I have a huge grill. The sides are down with a little drain that drains off the fat of the bacon. I can't stand the excess fat. Gives me bad heartburn for some reason and feels very heavy on my stomach. I will fry it up on the skill. Not to hard and not to soft. I am bad when it comes to cooking bacon like this as I have a system. One at a time where I can fit the whole pound package on it. But one at a time I will flip and flip them every 2 minutes so they don't get too crispy.

Cooking way #2

I love caesar salads and when I make a salad I am only making it for one person. So I don't want to make the whole package up. I will take 3 paper towels on the bottom of a plate. (big plate) place a few strips on there and then take another 3 paper towels and throw it ontop of them. I will throw them in the microwave and nuke them for about 4 minutes. Sometimes longer or sometimes less. Depending on the bacon really. I am looking for crispy in this case. I then take it out let it cool for a few and then I can break it up into pieces and throw in my salad.

It sounds like a GF grill to me! I've used it to cook bacon before, but only once! I love to flour mine and cook it that way! Thanks for the response!

I like mine fried in a pan - no flour. Actually, I've never heard of flouring bacon before. But, I cut the bacon in half and then cook the halves. That way I don't have any long pieces hanging over the edge of the pan. And, I cook it until there's no way it will ever bend again - good and crunchy. In fact, I'm not even opposed to having it just a little burnt! LOL Good stuff!!

I have never tried flouring bacon. I put mine on the electric griddle I have and cover it with my bacon press makes it nice and flat and crispy no curled up pieces.
