I don't make bacon. But when I do, I cut it up and toss it in a pan along with some potaters, sausage and egg.

I actually don't know how to cook at all, all I know how to do is toss stuff in a pan and fry it up

2) Oven if I'm preparing more than about 8 slices.

3) Pan frying if I absolutely MUST cook it that way. However, if I'm cooking a bunch of chopped bacon for like a huge salad or a giant dish of potatoes au gratin or something, I prefer to slice it down raw and then cook the little slices in a pan - that's easiest for that application imo.



I always cook bacon in the oven unless I'm doing the little pieces, same as you.

My oven method- big sheet of tin-foil, curled up at the edges with a cookie sheet underneath. Cook bacon, remove slices, and then once the foil is cool enough to handle, fold it so you can just pour the bacon grease into a jar. No mess, no dishes to clean up, no grease splatters, it's really the perfect way to make bacon imo.

Ours finally melted enough to not use it anymore. Microwave safe, my ass. Well it did last for some time. But now the paper towels on paper plate works the best.

That's pretty much exactly how I do it
