I find that bacon gets too soggy and pops too much grease when cooking in own fat in oven

I go foil-lined, 375F, 10 minutes, drain grease then additional 5 minutes.

I find that it comes out delicious... and easy clean up.


ETA: You could always foil line whatever grate you are using and poke holes in it so the grease drips down into the catch pan. Foil line that as well for easier clean up.

Just like that. This is the best way to get clean grease too

At 400 degrees. I will never cook bacon any other way. It's clean, easy, and comes out great every time.

As said, foil lined. If you don't like the grease as said dump it half way through. My favorite way and its not close, easiest way also. Easily the most consistent way to get all pieces the same.

Rack in the pic is a pain to clean, imo

Then foil line the rack, but poke some holes in it for the grease to drain into the foil-lined catch pan.

We use a foil lined pan just like in the picture. We also use that rack except we also cover the rack with foil and poke holes in it. Clean up is a snap and the bacon grease can be poured off and saved. If you don't line the rack, you'll have to use a brush and elbow grease to clean it.

I don't use a rack, and I use parchment instead of foil. Also use the oven's convection fan to help w/browning. The tiny improvement in texture generated by rack is hugely outweighed by scrubbing the rack, and I find that the c-fan gets me nearly the same results.

You can always put some ridges in your foil so the the grease drains away.

Otherwise, I'm with Boo. Even if the bacon is soaking in grease, you just set it on a paper towel lined plate and it dries up in seconds.

You ever find your turkey innards - or settled for chicken innards?

I use the rack and foil line the pan. I make sure to spray the rack with Pam cooking spray. Easy cleanup.
