No, about the only thing I use the microwave for is the timer ⏲️ when I’m cooking multiple dishes on the stove and in the oven/bbq😆

Does it work? I picture rubbery bacon

It does work, it is either super crispy or super rubbery. Haven’t taken the time to find the sweet spot. Doesn’t make as much as the oven so I don’t mess with it too much lol. You can cook steak and baked potatoes in the microwave as well

Edit: and by steak I mean cook just enough to finish with a sear in the cast iron when it’s done. I don’t hardly use this method unless it’s freeze your balls off cold in the winter and I really want a steak

Edit 2: freeze your balls off cold for me is -10F and colder with a 10-20 mph wind

My brother, get yourself a decent cast iron pan and never look back. I only cook steak in a cast iron pan, on the grill outside, (or sometimes in a cast iron pan on the grill outside)😆

I joined the steak subreddit and the cast iron subreddit and enjoy the pictures and the tips and tricks given there.

Cast iron steak!🤌 🥩 😋

I do have a pretty good cast-iron pan. But I’m not a huge fan of using it to cook my steaks mainly for the cleanup factor involved lol

I hear you. I usually wipe it out after with a paper towel then I use dish soap and a nylon brush after a little soak.

Re-season with heat and oil and viola!

It was nice chatting with you today. Cheers 🍻
