Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.  Place a baking rack onto the baking sheet. Make sure the baking rack fits INTO the baking sheet. (THIS is the baking sheet I use, THIS is the baking rack I use)
  2. Lay the slices of bacon on the rack, so that they are flat and not touching each other.
  3. Place the baking sheet in a cold oven.
  4. Set temperature to 350°F.
  5. Bake for 20-30 minutes, until desired crispness is reached.  Different brands and cuts of bacon will take different amounts of time.
