I guess I've been doing it wrong all my life; that bacon from the "wrong way" plate looks like pretty much every plate of bacon I've ever made. And it looks delicious too, moreso than the "right way" plate, which appears to be much less crispy. I will have to try this though, just to be sure (and now I have an excuse to eat bacon! Score one for me! ... and zero for my arteries)

I usually cook bacon on medium for about 10-12 minutes I'd guess. It turns out alright, but I'm going to have to give the low/20 method a shot.

How it's made

This is incorrect.
The correct way to cook the best bacon you will ever eat is as follows:


on a gas charcoal grill, place a few strips of bacon on the edge of the grill, as far as possible from the flames.

If the bacon is too close to the flames, the dripping fat will catch fire and burn the bacon. This is bad.

Cook the bacon for 15-20 minutes, keeping the grill covered for most of the time. check it every so often to make sure there are not flare ups. Flip the bacon at least once.

When the bacon is evenly brownish, it is done.




Alternatively, on a gas grill, place bacon on the warming rack above the food you are cooking. the bacon fat rendered out will drip on to the food below and impart it's magical piggy flavors into the other food.
This takes a lot longer, and there is increased chances for flare-ups, especially if the grill is not full of food. You need to keep an eye on this.

To me there is now wrong way to cook bacon, because I'll eat it no matter how it's cooked. Fried, baked, grilled, raw: It's all good. I think bacon's gotten a bad rap from doctors and nutritionists. I eat pounds of it every day, and I only have to get my arteries roto-rootered every three months. In your face, health nazis!

the best way to cook bacon is the RAF way.

1. Show bacon some heat for a bit
2. Put bacon in 3 inches of tepid fat with 2953 other pieces of bacon
3. Wait more than one hour
4. Remove from grease lake and place under hotlamp for a random amount of time
5. Serve with watery tomatoes and deep fried low quality bread. And sausages with pigs arseholes in them

Pft. All wrong.

Electric griddle all the way. don't drain the fat, but do flip often. Drain fat if you like it crispy though...

I slow cook my bacon and drain the fat halfway through. I like it with a little bit of chewiness.

Noooooo! Forget cooking it wrong, that isn't even real bacon - your fat to meat ratio is all wrong.

Stand up for your bacon rights America, this is what real bacon looks like:
Mmmmm, bacon.

Bacon should be slices of meat, with a small rind of fat - not the other way around.

I feel the urge to punch him in the face. (I think it's how he delivers his message using such annoying paralinguistics..)

If I fry bacon I use a high heat and a (very) short cooking time and it comes out looking nothing like this guy's "the wrong way". Burnt and soggy? If you have any cooking ability then this will not be the case... the real trick is making the pan hot enough.. mmn.. crispy bacon fat.

Perhaps the only 'wrong way' is when people use a medium heat, or they don't wait for the pan to get hot enough before throwing the bacon in.

Of course, a grill is often the way forwards..

why would you guys waste time and energy cooking bacon? It tastes great right out of that slimy little package...mmmm

I can cook beautiful bacon in a pan, and I pretty much do it the way he says. However, I find pan-cooked bacon far inferior to microwaved bacon, which is quicker, tastier, and less subject to driving the cooks to little fits of pretension.

I always use my George Forman grill. Draining the "precious" pool of rendered pig grease or not, best way to cook bacon imho.

And the second best way to cook bacon, is to cover your naked body in fresh, raw bacon and then sit in a sauna until it is cooked.

Remember kids, if you really want to enjoy bacon like this, you've gotta go to your local butcher's. That stuff they sell in the store is great(because bacon is always great in any form) but whaen you go to the butcher's, you can get the best. I usually ask them to cut it about a quarter-inch thick. A few pieces of that makes anything else delicious by association. Mmmmmm....

And for you vegetarian, ex-bacon eaters:

I like turkey bacon because it's cleaner. Pork bacon is soooo messy. It takes forever to clean the stove of splatters.

You absolutely have to have pork bacon for cooking other things. Old southern ladies use it for everything. My mom keeps bacon grease next to the stove to fry her eggs with every morning. She's in her 70s.. no heart disease yet bless her.

Ryikyj, can you get bacon at the butcher's without nitrates?

I'm willing to bet half of those who watched this made something with bacon in it within the day. BLT here.

Fascinating, and I'm intrigued, but also... 20 MINUTES? Oh come on...

Also, that's some seriously high fat content bacon there, not much pink meat by the looks... what's wrong with short cut, rindless bacon?
