How to cook the best bacon 🥓

submitted by WanderingToast to Food 2 yearsApr 15, 2023 08:31:50 ago (+8/-3)     (Food)

This can and will make women fall in love with you. Do as follows.

1. Fill pan with bacon flat, you can have a bit of overlap as it shrinks. Pan must be cold.

2. Add water to the pan, just enough to cover the bacon.

3. Activate maximum fire 🔥

4. When all water has boiled off there will be a brown residue on the surface of the pan. Scrape this off with a spatula and either bin or eat. (It's bacon salt and delicious - but does not keep at all. Good seasoning for mash tho)

Alternatively don't scrape off the residue, but it will burn and set off the smoke alarm.

5. Keeping fire on maximum, flip the bacon a few times till the outside is crispy.

If you follow these steps you will have bacon that is juicy and succulent on the I side, but crispy on the outside with a crunchy bite.

I just put mine in the air fryer for 9 minutes at 375. It's effectively the same thing and I get to save the grease for cooking eggs. It's a lot less work and a fuckton less mess.

Bacon grease makes eggs stick to the pan badly and doesn't really improve the flavor. Try beef tallow.

Seconded. Whoever said it made the eggs taste better lied.

Thank you! Sheeesh these guys have no palette.

I bet your household eats well.

I try! My favorite is mediterranean but the husband is more meat and potatoes.So I can only get away with so much.

That beef tallow does take forever. That's an impressive task to take on regularly. I only did it the one time when I was forced to buy a brisket and refused to let any of it go to waste and it really does make a difference.

I'm generally meat and potatoes but I've been eating a lot of Mediterranean food lately. There's a few hearty options he'd probably like, I wish I could remember the name of a Greek dish I had the other day, but it had some very substantial grilled lamb.

Yeah the tallow is a chore but worth it imo. Sometimes you can find it already prepared at farmers markets, but it keeps well so I just buy a big chunk of suet from the butcher and make a bunch every few months.

It will also make the best french fries you've ever tasted.

Then you're using a shit skillet and/or have your heat on way too high. You should be using either an iron skillet or an enameled one. Properly seasoned, you don't need any fat for an iron skillet to be nonstick. An enameled non-iron skillet will cook an egg perfectly on the lowest setting on your stove. Even with shit poisonous teflon skillets, you shouldn't have your heat even at halfway.

TL;DR: Learn to cook properly, ya scrub.

No I'm just not a dumbass that thinks bacon grease makes eggs better because it's often cooked at the same time. It sticks and also smokes and burns at too low a temperature to do the job right. Yeah, seasoned cast iron is great but we weren't talking about pans, we were talking about bacon grease dumb shit. Imagine telling someone that takes a few hours to render beef suet into tallow that they don't know about cooking. Give it a try and I'll wait here for your apology Mr air fryer.

Wow, you really misspelled "I don't know how to read." You're a complete fucking moron who is just mad because you want to be mad and pulling shit out of your ass that was never said.

And you don't know how to cook properly.

Maybe start comprehending what was said instead of setting up a strawman so you can knock it down and feel smart and I won't have to repeat myself, dippydoo.

Strawman huh? Guess you heard that word once and thought it sounded smart because you're using it wrong.

Bacon grease makes eggs better because the eggs get some bacon flavor on em.

[ - ] SecretHitler 0 points 2 yearsApr 16, 2023 00:06:42 ago (+0/-0)

Everyone always says that but if you do a side by side comparison it really doesn't give them much flavor.

The bigger problem is its awful for keeping them from sticking, and then your eggs get all fucked up if you're trying to do SSU or over-easy. Tends to smoke and burn at a lower temperature too. Butter is better to prevent sticking but has the same problem of burning at low temps.

Tallow is amazing for the job. Coconut oil is another good one and easier to find if you don't want to render your own. Both have a much higher smoke point.

bake it on a cookie sheet on parchment paper to keep from sticking. interweave in squares when it shrinks it is size of a piece of bread. cover with cookie sheet to keep flat. Bake at 375 till done. you can strain the grease through wire coffee filter and use later. enjoy on BLT or egg sandwich or just straight.

[ - ] Cunt 1 point 2 yearsApr 15, 2023 23:10:06 ago (+1/-0)

Yes this but 200°c is adequate. I don't bother trying to flatten them. Having old bacon grease on the paper is the best.

Bacon is for faggots...real men feast on salt pork.

[ - ] SecretHitler 1 point 2 yearsApr 16, 2023 00:09:43 ago (+1/-0)

Salt pork is for sheeple. Real goats just hit the salt lick.

What kind of femoid hambeast are you trying to bang?! I’m not sure we’re trying to impress the same women…

[ - ] OriginalGoat 0 points 2 yearsApr 15, 2023 10:41:41 ago (+1/-1)

Fuck, look out faggots there's a post about pork. Gonna bring the swathe of kike-worshipping nigger-lovers out of the woodwork that have infected this site.

Absolutely idiotic advice. Learn to cook bacon the trad way.

[ - ] WanderingToast [op] 3 points 2 yearsApr 15, 2023 09:03:57 ago (+4/-1)

Shut the fuck up, you have no idea what your talking about.

Besides doesn't it say something in your religion about not eating pork?

[ - ] big_fat_dangus 1 point 2 yearsApr 15, 2023 10:36:33 ago (+2/-1)

Doesn't it say something in your religion about not being a little pussy? Fry in a cast iron pan you bitch, simple as, miss me with your water boil reddit hack.

[ - ] WanderingToast [op] 0 points 2 yearsApr 15, 2023 11:20:04 ago (+1/-1)

LoL the beta cuck is triggered.

You probably don't even own a cast iron skillet

[ - ] big_fat_dangus -1 points 2 yearsApr 15, 2023 11:28:42 ago (+0/-1)

Actually, I do. What now, bitch? Go back to reddit.

[ - ] WanderingToast [op] 0 points 2 yearsApr 15, 2023 11:55:19 ago (+1/-1)

Prove it fatty.

As for go back to Reddit... you're the one with an apparent knowledge of what's on the site.

And I'm willing to guess if you do own a skillet, you have no idea why or how to cook on it.

[ - ] big_fat_dangus -2 points 2 yearsApr 15, 2023 11:56:41 ago (+0/-2)

I'm willing to guess you get no bitches.

[ - ] WanderingToast [op] -1 points 2 yearsApr 15, 2023 12:49:02 ago (+0/-1)

LoL guess again fatty.

I'm a reformed womaniser, now married with a litters worth of children.

I'm the guy other guys want to be and women want to be with. Even now as a married man I'm batting them off left right and center.

Hell I had a female colleague send me an unprompted picture of her tits the other day.

Feel free to snort and huff from your fat podgy face, that only a mother could love, and tell yourself "that never happened", while I live a life so far beyond what's possible for you, it reads as unattainable.

[ - ] big_fat_dangus 0 points 2 yearsApr 15, 2023 12:58:35 ago (+0/-0)

And then everyone clapped. You can't even cook bacon nigga.

[ - ] WanderingToast [op] 0 points 2 yearsApr 15, 2023 13:07:56 ago (+0/-0)

As predicted.

If only your waist was as small as your sad little life aye
