Nueske's bacon online store

I was ordering a slab of Nueske's and thought about using Sous Vide to cook it first.

Anyone try this and if so, how'd it turn out?

I mean why would you? You'd still need to fry it to get it crisp and then it'll be overcooked

I don't see the point in using this method for bacon

According to this LINK:

A. Once done, the bacon is fully cooked all the way through and can be stored for two weeks in the fridge or up to six months in the freezer.

B. Cooking time on the griddle is cut down significantly, as it simply needs to be seared.

C. How hard is it to set it and leave it overnight, anyway?

I have. I just did it overnight.

It was good. I didn't really notice a significant difference though. It did make active cook time quicker.

Then the question is, is it worth the trouble to do multiple packages at one time and freeze them? Having hosted a bunch of relatives recently, cooking a lot of bacon takes time. Would this speed up the process enough to be worth doing this?

Yeah if you needed to cook a lot it might be worth it

Although cooking it in the oven would be easy as wel
