Ingredients
- Package of Bacon - I used regular bacon not "thick" bacon for this recipe. If you buy "thick cut" you may need to adjust cooking times.
Instructions
- Pre-heat your Oven - Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees. I do not add my bacon in prior to preheating.
- Prep Your Pan - Cover your sheet pan with foil. This helps keep the mess in place. Additionally, make your make shift wire rack to hoist up your bacon from the pan.
- Add your Bacon - Now add your bacon in strips on top of the foil rack. Try to space out the foil pieces so your bacon stays afloat. This does not have to be perfect. I cut some bacon in half to fit my sheet pan. Just get as much on there as you want.
- Cook - Cook your bacon for 17 minutes at 400. Keep in mind all ovens can run differently even IF they say 400. I happen to know my gas oven runs hotter, so I only needed 17 minutes for my perfect stage of crispiness in bacon. You may need 1-2 minutes more.
