Die hard pan fryer here, extra lean thick cut bacon cooked in extra virgin olive oil, with fried mushrooms on thick fresh buttered (not that marge rubbish) bread! Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Grilled! Used to use microwave when i was about 18 and ****ed up otherwise i'd probably burnt my face off.

Fry back bacon, grill streaky.

Although the Mrs insists on it being grilled if she does it, whatever bacon it is.

Wynthorpe · 9 Mar 2011 at 17:47

Sounds like my missus Gimp! She also removes any sight of the lovely tasty fat...... WOMEN!

Wow quick responses

Is there anything wrong with microwaving? It seems to be the easiest/least hassle option...

You could eat it raw?

RIP in about 5 years.

I'm not going to bother reading this thread. But, microwaving bacon? Are you mentally ill?

NW_SKINHEAD has the right idea. Bacon should only ever be fried.

Bacon is cured which takes time, you would just have pork slices not bacon in the woods.

I hope that bread is fried in the bacon fat, otherwise you sir disgust me.

That would be a pork sandwich, not bacon

sigma · 9 Mar 2011 at 18:32

Hmm true. Still tasty mind.

WHAT!!! · 9 Mar 2011 at 18:38

always use a frying pan best way to cook it and use the same pan next time for added flavour with already bacon juices int he pan

My mother likes to microwave the stuff but i find most of the time its bland or just stringy where the fat has not cooked proper if it was to be done in the pan or grill
