Fried is best, fairly crispy. Once done, add butter to the pan and have yourself bacony fried bread.

Microwaved bacon is rank. Grill or fry you freak.

emmjaybee · 9 Mar 2011 at 14:47

Definitely Fry it, hence the term Fry Up!!! then with the fat left over you do your fried bread mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm tasty!

Fry, quicker than grilling and actually easier to clean afterwards.

Microwaving bacon IS cooking heresy

Why though?

It takes about 5 in a frying pan!

Why ruin the almighty with silly 'cooking' methods?

time to cook and time to clean = longer in a pan.
still, ive microwaved bacon before, its not as nice as the other 2 options but its possible and not as bad as people think.

No I had some earlier, but that's beside the point.

Microwaves are for reheating or last minute panics.

There is no need. :confused:

A whole 2 minutes extra, if that? What about the cleaning of the microwave?

ouch...

It isn't rank lol, I actually quite enjoy it

Another question: Ketchup, Brown Sauce or other on bacon?

Microwaving any food is heresy especially bacon, grill it or fry it. Usually grill mine but sometimes fry it in butter or lard.

sigma · 9 Mar 2011 at 14:50

I'm actually offended and feel sorry for your bacon slices and taste buds.

Next you'll be saying you prefer to microwave burgers and hotdogs instead of a barbecue.

Go sit in the corner facing the microwave and confess your sins.

Guerrilla · 9 Mar 2011 at 14:50

Grill or fry depending on time/what else i'm cooking.

Never heard of microwaving bacon, can't imagine there would be much crispiness going on there.

Haha

Nothing beats a barbecue. And no, there is no way I would prefer Rustlers and the like.

That's why I microwave, I can't stand crispy bacon

MeatLoaf · 9 Mar 2011 at 14:53

I always microwave bacon, and sometimes i lay it on some sliced mushrooms so the juice coming out of the bacon stops the mushrooms shrivelling up

Ewaf · 9 Mar 2011 at 14:54

I put bacon salt and BBQ sauce on mine. Bacon overload with a nice kick.

CLOSE THE THREAD! There is no saving this one.

pepp77 · 9 Mar 2011 at 14:55

Always fried if I do it, whereas my sister always grills.

i also prefer streaky to back as it crisps up better IMO.
