The best method for making crispy bacon?

[LostForWords2021]

following the best way to cook scrambled egg - ways I never thought about.
What's your top crispy bacon method?

Use streaky bacon and grill it

Streaky bacon in the oven. When it’s ready, transfer it straight onto paper kitchen towels to blot excess fat liquid.

I am the scrambled egg woman, I am now interested in the bacon

Please do carry on..!

I usually cook bacon in the oven, 20m at 225c

BBQ!

Always grill for me, turn it over half way through

Back bacon in the oven on blast furnace, turn after 10 minutes then keep turning and checking every 5 mins tell it looks like it will snap.

thanks to your thread, I'm planning breakfast for dinner tomorrow!

Very hot oil in the frying pan 🥓

I do it in the oven. Greaseproof paper on a baking tray. Very hot oven. And always use streaky.

Never a bad thing, it's odd that we choose such specific items for breakfast but not dinner isn't it?

Thanks to mr bloody kellogg.

Make the frying pan very hot before adding streaky bacon. Then keep it on till it starts to crisp and turn a few times. Yum!

Back bacon never cooks as well.

streaky bacon and fry it in a dry frying pan it crisps in its own fat back bacon has too much water in it thats better cooked in the oven

Air fryer all the way.

Love how every other thread is 'I'm not using my oven any more' and this one is advocating 20 mins at 220 for rashers of bacon.

We are all different

PS must try it in my instant pot

Air fryer

I’ve seen recommendations for cooking streaky bacon in water - just enough to cover it. Apparently that’s how it’s done in America.
Never tried it, but I retain useless information and this seems like the thread to share it.

Griddle pan on hob

Definitely air fryer

My Dad always did it like this to get the white scummy stuff out of it then popped under the grill for a minute or 2.

Thats a fatty ham thinly slice🙁 No crisp, no crunch.

Ina does hers in the oven - always looks fantastic.

DH does his in the air fryer for 5 minutes.

Very hot oven (we have an Aga so 220 degrees). We also get our bacon from our neighbours who are farmers, it is superb and has no water added and fat an inch thick.
