I mean, come on.Chewy bacon over Crispy bacon. To each his own I guess!

It pays to find out things earlier.

Hindsight!

I have yet to find a happy medium to please us all. I bake it in the oven and take some out earlier than the rest.

I usually set the oven to 400°, line a baking sheet with parchment and cook it for 8-10 minutes on each side. This is also a massive time save if you need to cook a quantity of bacon. If you use a cast iron for this you need to cut the temperature down to 180° since the cast iron pan gets crazy hot.

Parchment on foil. If a little grease gets through you just give a little wipe and you're good to go again. Mmmm bacon.

Good idea. I usually make a shallow origami "pan" with the parchment. It usually keeps the grease from seeping over the sides, but sometimes the grease does seem to go right through the paper.

LOL. He definitely does not save me time in the kitchen!

As long as is't cooked enough, everyone should be safe. But how do you know?

I'll take mine medium, please. :-p~

Bacon is so thin that I think as long as it isn't pink it should be ok?

I'll remember that next time I make bacon for the comment section. ;)

LOL

It seems like there's about a 10 second window,where it goes from perfect to burnt

True stuff there Damon! You will have near perfect bacon, 10 seconds later inedible charred remains of bacon.

Chewy in a cast iron skillet.

Chewy bacon. Aka, bacon that's NOT FINISHED COOKING YET.

;)

I love chewy bacon!!!

Turns out a lot of other people enjoy it too!

I like bacon any kind of way. But I prefer crispy.

LOL!

Loved it chewy when I was a kid. Now it has to be crispy.
