A Reddit user has shared their foolproof method for cooking “perfect bacon every time”. The user, known as ‘nietzkore’, took to the popular online forum to share their advice, explaining how they use a cast iron griddle to cook the meat.

They claimed that frying bacon on medium heat in its own grease is “the absolute best way” and not unconventional. The bacon enthusiast also suggested a traditional approach to cooking bacon, which includes bringing the meat up to room temperature by taking it out of the fridge 15 minutes before frying.

Instead of preheating a pan, they recommend starting with a cold pan and adding the bacon before turning on the heat to medium-low.

They said: “[The] Absolute best way is a cast iron griddle that covers two burners since you can cook an entire pound of bacon in one go.

“You flip it once it starts to wave, and then every five to seven minutes until it’s the crispness you desire. Perfect bacon every time.”

They noted that this method works well even for the thickest slices of bacon, which can otherwise remain undercooked. A user going by the name of “nietzkore” on Reddit has shared a game-changing method for cooking bacon that guarantees more even results, reports the Express.

They explained: “The only difference you are going to get from not draining out fat between batches is that you are putting raw meat into hot oil. That’s going to brown the outside and leave the inside raw.

“You are then deep-frying the bacon.” In search of alternatives, some Redditors have turned to less traditional methods.

For instance, “dontwastebacon” suggested: “I put my bacon between two paper towels and do it in the microwave for about two to three minutes (depending on the number of your stripes and the power of your microwave).

“Goes fairly fast, the bacon looks and tastes awesome and it is low effort.”

Meanwhile, air fryers have joined the fray as another highly recommended option for achieving the desired bacon crispiness.

But if that’s not to your liking, there are always the tried and tested methods of baking strips in an oven or using a grill.
