Easy Backpacking Bacon Recipe
The aromoa of bacon cooking in your oven will get all the sleepy people out of bed in the morning! Baking bacon, rather than sautéeing it, is the most easy, effiicient, and even cooking method. Give it a try!
Ingredients
- 1 pound thick-cut bacon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F degrees.
- Line one sheet pan with parchment paper.*
- Lay bacon out evenly in a single layer on the sheet pan with as little overlapping as possible. The bacon will shrink while it cooks so a little overlapping is OK.
- Bake bacon for 15 minutes.
- At this point check the bacon for desired crispness. It is advised to bake as much moiture out of your backpacking bacon as possible. So, err on the side of more crisp but not burnt.
- If needed, bake your bacon for another 2 minutes
- Lay cooked bacon onto a plate lined with paper towel. This helps drain the extra grease from the bacon. In addition, dab the extra grease off the top of the slices of cooked bacon.
- Let the bacon cool and package the slices up into airtight baggies, either reusable or Ziploc bags.
Notes
- One pound of thick-cut bacon should fit perfectly one one sheet pan. If your bacon is thin-cut, use two sheet pans.
