π₯ Crispy Bacon Like Never Before! (3 Foolproof Ways)
Is there anything more satisfying than the sound of bacon sizzling? π₯ Whether you love it for breakfast, on sandwiches, or crumbled over salads, perfectly crispy bacon makes everything better.
But here’s the secret: you don’t need to deal with messy splatters or chewy, uneven slices. With these three simple cooking methods, you’ll get golden, crunchy, melt-in-your-mouth bacon every single time.
π³ Ingredients:
-
1 pound thick-cut or regular bacon (your choice!)
-
Optional: a dash of black pepper, maple syrup, or brown sugar for flavor
π©π³ Method 1: Oven-Baked Bacon (Crispiest & Cleanest)
-
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
-
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil, then place a wire rack on top.
-
Lay bacon strips in a single layer (don’t overlap).
-
Bake 15–20 minutes, depending on thickness.
-
Drain on paper towels — and enjoy that perfect crunch!
π‘ Pro Tip: For candied bacon, sprinkle brown sugar or brush with maple syrup before baking.
π³ Method 2: Stovetop Bacon (Classic & Quick)
-
Place bacon strips in a cold skillet (this helps fat render evenly).
-
Turn heat to medium and cook slowly, flipping occasionally.
-
Remove once crisp, about 8–10 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
π‘ Pro Tip: Pour off excess grease halfway through for extra crispiness.
π Method 3: Air Fryer Bacon (Fast & Perfectly Crisp)
-
Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
-
Arrange bacon slices in a single layer (work in batches if needed).
-
Cook 8–10 minutes, checking halfway.
-
Adjust for desired crispiness — no mess, no splatter!
π‘ Pro Tip: Place a slice of bread in the air fryer basket to absorb grease and prevent smoke.
