Easy Microwave Bacon

    Disclaimer: Based on a review, I DO NOT recommend using a paper plate. This is a quick and easy way to get nice crispy/chewy bacon in the microwave. I've been making it this way for years, and thought I would share. This method sure beats the spattered grease mess all over the stove top from pan frying, or having to use the oven in the hot summertime. Enjoy! NOTE: Cooking times will vary according to your microwave, the type of bacon, and your desired level of crispness/ chewiness, so feel free to adjust cooking times as necessary. If this is the first time you use my method, be sure to closely monitor the process and check often.

    Easy Microwave Bacon,Disclaimer: Based on a review, I DO NOT recommend using a paper plate. This is a quick and easy way to get nice crispy/chewy bacon in the microwave. I’ve been making it this way for years, and thought I would share. This method sure beats the spattered grease mess all over the stove top from pan frying, or having to use the oven in the hot summertime. Enjoy! NOTE: Cooking times will vary according to your microwave, the type of bacon, and your desired level of crispness/ chewiness, so feel free to adjust cooking times as necessary. If this is the first time you use my method, be sure to closely monitor the process and check often.,I’ve been doing this for some time, have never had a problem. use a good quality paper plate and paper towels, but never more than about four slices. Timing depends on the type of bacon, how you like it done and power of your microwave. You have to experiment with this. When I open a new package of bacon, I start with three slices for two minutes, and adjust from there. Even the same brand and thickness can change from package to package. You can always add time, cannot take it back, so start conservatively. I like the easy clean up and I find the bacon to my liking.
