Reply to comment by ownlife909 in Hot bacon [homemade] by Turtleramem

Alright, I concede I misspoke but have you ever tried it on a rack? I have always got a crispier bacon on rack vs pan. Plus the added benefit of not being saturated in fat. If that's what you want.

My ideal bacon isn’t crispy. I prefer it to be fully rendered but have a little chew, and cooking in the fat is essential for that. Plus cleaning the rack sucks. But to each their own- not saying your way of doing it is wrong, I was just pointing out the juices vs fat difference.

I'm with you actually but my wife loves crispy bacon so that's what we make. And I just dishwasher the rack which will probably garner even more downvotes.

Wanna really change your world? Sous vide the bacon at 147F for 12 hours and then bake in the oven. Stupid overkill but my god is it good slightly under-crispy.

I found the rack made the bacon too chewy. Not a fan.
