And why do we bake cookies but cook bacon?
Jokes aside, I have baked my bacon and it works really well for preparing an awful lot of bacon very quickly.
Once you do that, you have bacon that you can quickly microwave and slap on a sandwich, plus you can easily collect all of the grease for making gravies or general cooking purposes if you so desire.
I'd go so far as to say baking is superior- it never reaches temp to make the oil pop and makes a mess inside the oven, and you're only limited on how much bacon you can cook by how many cookie sheets you own (and maybe how much bacon you have stored away in the freezer ๐). Great point on the grease, easy to collect afterwards! Makes great rice!
