    Title: Oven Bacon
    Categories: Five, Pork
    Yield: 1 Recipe

    1 lb Thick-cut bacon *

    MMMMM-------------------------EQUIPMENT------------------------------
    Large rimmed baking sheet
    Aluminum foil
    Baking rack (Opt: Cooking
    - the bacon on a rack makes
    - the bacon crisper, & lets
    - the grease drip off the
    - bacon as it cooks. **

    Set your oven @ 400°F/205°C.

    You won't be broiling the bacon, so put your oven rack
    in the middle of your oven to distribute the heat
    evenly. Note: You can also start with a cold oven and
    let the bacon cook as the oven warms.

    Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil. Make sure
    the foil extends up the sides of the pan so it captures
    all the bacon grease and clean-up is easier.

    Arrange bacon strips directly on the foil. It's okay if
    the bacon overlaps slightly, because it will shrink
    slightly as it bakes. OR place the bacon on a rack.
    Place the baking pan in the oven.

    Cook bacon for 10 to 20 minutes, depending on how chewy
    or crispy you like your bacon.

    Transfer cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined platter.
    The extra grease will be absorbed by the paper towels,
    and the bacon will crisp up a bit as it cools. You can
    then transfer it to a clean plate to serve.

    * This works with thin-sliced bacon as well but the
    timing is different - UDD

    ** If you go the rack route, you should still line your
    baking pan with foil to make clean-up easy. Save the
    tasty bacon fat for cooking all manner of other stuff.
