Fried. While it’s cooling on the plate, I use all the fat for the scrambled eggs.

[General Dryness]

Fried.

 

And its false economy to grill it for health reasons. Bacon is not a fucking health food. If you want to eat healthy, bacon is one of them things that has to go, unfortunately.

I've had one of those devices for about 6 months. I don't get it. It seems to make cooking harder than on devices that already exist.

grilled. Crispy rind is the best part.

Rind? Rind? Where are you getting your bacon? That is a glorious dream from about 30 years ago. Back in the days when there was middle bacon.

And here, must be a new world thing for the civilised folk.

Good few pieces of

bacon with streaky middle attached.

remove the eye’s and put to one side (with minimal fat).

then divvy up the streak stuff into meatier and %80% fat.

cook the fatty stuff first in a hot pan to tender the fat and crisp things up, then lower heat a little and lash the meaty rashers in, finally adding the eyes for the last couple of minutes, to cook but not crisp.

stick on buttered white bread, slather in HP.

sit with brew and eat.

I sometimes cook mine in the microwave. It’s surprisingly nice. 1 minute 30 for 2 slices.Neg me to fuck. Not even arsed lad. It works.  It spits fat everywhere too so use kitchen roll as a shield on top.
After a night shift I can’t be arsed with the grill heating up, it takes the fucking piss,

whirring away while starving.

But grilled is better. Crunchy.

that's not even for the microwaved bacon

[Scooby Dudek]

Fried.

At Stonehenge years ago I saw a lad in a two tone suit standing over a bit of a fire eating bacon raw, I'd seen him the night before when he sat by us and our fire, off our heads, then moved on, a creepy individual. 

I think it was smoked too, the weirdo.

I find lugging it from the place my wife wants me to keep it, to where I want to use it, a bit tricky but cooking with it’s a breeze.

 

Two slices of bacon, a few thickly chopped mushrooms, on the air fryer setting for ten minutes. At least the equal of any frying pan, better than the grill and in a different stratosphere to the microwave.

At least one level down from using a frigging microwave.

Fucking old girl still hasnt mastered the art of cooking bacon. Like eggs, it's fucking atomic when she cooks it. Only needs a maximum 90 seconds to crisp up not 4 fucking minutes!
