How To Make baked bacon a la christy
-
Step 1Cover a baking sheet (with sides) with foil or parchment paper. Lay out your bacon on the foil. -
Step 2Place bacon in a COLD oven and turn the oven to 375 degrees F.
-
Step 3The first time you make it, watch carefully. The timing depends on how thick your bacon is and how crispy (or not) you like it. Thick bacon takes about 15-20 minutes. On my oven it takes 17 minutes to have it the way MY FAMILY likes it. Adjust for YOUR family Once you know your "time," go read the Sunday paper or watch cartoons with the kids. Or check out Christy Jordan's latest delicious recipe at Southern Plate.

Step 4Remove from oven & place on paper towels to drain. If you're a true southern cook, drain the bacon grease into a cast iron skillet for your eggs. Otherwise, allow it to cool and fold it up in the foil for disposal.
-
Step 5Serve it with your favorite breakfast foods. Wasn't this easy? =^..^=

Step 6Another yummy serving suggestion.
