What's the best way to cook bacon in your opinion?

Pan

Pan fried?

Oh and crispy?

I pan fry mine, and like to leave it a little bit chewy. I don't like any burnt/overcooked flavor or texture.

Oven cooked and crispy

Pan

I love pan fried bacon but you haven't lived until you made bacon on the grill! So amazing

Super crispy. I can't handle that rubbery texture of fat at all. If it's not super crispy I'm picking it apart and only eating the meat.

Pan with brown sugar

Baked.

Fry in a cast iron skillet but rarely dump out the grease so basically you're deep frying it and it's own grease. Cook it until it's extra crispy. I like it to turn to dust when I take a bite.

All of it

In the oven sprinkled with pepper and brown sugar

I eat turkey bacon in the oven only! If you don't pull it out at the right second, it literally burns right up. I stand my by stove and check it ?

Ladycorkandwine likes burnt chewy men. So that's a fun fact of the day.

I've never met a piece of bacon I didn't like.

Baked so you don't stink up the house and get grease all over your stove. Chewy but crispy on the ends.

Ummmm. Not at all ??

Pan, or Waffle maker only. I like mine chewy. Oh and we get turkey or even vegan bacon.

Baked and crisp. So much more quick to make and no mess everywhere.

Baked.

Porkless ?

I prefer baked.

Ging who are you even?!

It's 10pm and now I want bacon. ?

It's 10pm and now I want bacon. ?

Crispy oven baked

Pan ☺

I like it in the foreman the most but love it pan fried too.

Burnt chewy men? I guess that's how I like mine too!

I bake my bacon til it's crispy. It's the only way I'll eat it.

Pan fried and a little chewy

Lol I'm honestly surprised no one has said microwaved. MIL makes bacon in the microwave. Who does that?!

Why would you put water?

I like mine crispy.

There's something about the crunchy crispy fat that I love. I definitely pan fry it.

I make it mine in the microwave when I'm making my husbands breakfast in the morning since I'm in a hurry

Nothing beats crispy bacon!

Pan fried and barely cooked lol. I loooove soft, squishy bacon ??

Now im making turkey bacon.

It's 10:17pm and I want to make bacon....

It's 11.25 here

Never too late to follow your dreams, pp. #bacon.

In oven with parchment paper underneath. ... much easier to clean!

who tf adds water?!, pan fry i take it out when its still a little light brown and by the time it settles its nice and crispy but not over done

I bake mine. Cooks faster and is less messy. And ds is always hanging around at my feet so I'd be too afraid to pan fry it for fear of grease popping on him.

I like it crispy.

Baked

That's it I'm makin bacon!!

I was undecided on it and laid in bed now my preggo self is getting up to make some crispy but soft bacon !!!!

And not share ?

Crispy in the oven.

Pan-fried tastes great, but I can't succeed the level of overly-crispiness I desire. ?

I've never even heard of someone cooking bacon in the oven?

I fry it in the iron skillet and I like it crispy.

Stove top. Oven tastes different to me and it's too crispy. I like a little chew to it. My fils gf makes hers in the microwave. ?. I've never hear of making it with water though.

Copied this from a blog... Hmmm might have to try the water thing

I tried the method using various amounts of water and found that America's Test Kitchen is right: the water renders the fat, so there is a lot less splattering. More importantly, the technique produces a browned and crisp-edged slice without the risk of burned bacon. Tender and a little chewy, this bacon was perfect in a wedge salad because it didn't crumble when I speared it with a fork; it was as pliable as thick-cut bacon, but with the crispness you would expect from the usual thin slice.

But there's no need to completely cover the bacon slices with water. It takes a long time for that much water to boil off and I thought the results were just as good — and much quicker! — with a smaller amount of water. Once the bacon is in the pan, add just enough water to completely coat the bottom of the pan and cook over medium-high heat until the water has evaporated. Reduce the heat to medium and cook the bacon until crisp.

Haha I searched Pinterest and this was all I could find ???

My bacon never turns out like the pic.

My bacon always ends up burnt/super crispy. I wish it looked like the pic. Hey as long as it ain't raw I like my bacon anyway

Baked!!

None of the above. Put it on the gas grill outside!

I microwave mine on paper towels because they absorb the grease and the bacon turns out crispy.

I didn't realize this was weird or inferior or gross.

?

On the skillet to crispy perfection!

I prefer mine a little bit soft still.

Pan fried or baked and either really crispy or limp

Microwave. I prefer pan but microwaving ahead of time makes it so I can eat it before school

Oven!

How would you even cook bacon by 'adding water'

Pan fry... crispy, please!

I always bake bacon

In the garbage can.

Baked ??

Baked ? forever!

Pan fried or grilled on the George Foreman grill. I like my bacon pink though so I trim the fat off first ???

Baked to crispy perfection ? so low maintenance that way too instead of standing over the stove.

I like mine crispy and just a little burned on the edges. I prefer fried but microwaves have made me lazy.

I hope someone invents the ability to transmit food via 3D printer. I bet a lot of people would keep one by the bed for midnight snacks.

Nellie

Baked for sure.
