The Real Reason Why You Should Try Cooking Bacon In Water

We all have our go-to ways when it comes to cooking bacon. Some of us love baking it, as nothing is better than opening our oven to the sweet smell and sight of cooked bacon.

Then there are those who have to cook bacon in a cast iron pan so that their entire kitchen and house begin to smell like bacon. It’s all about stimulating the senses when it comes to cooking and eating bacon.

However, what if we told you there was another way to cook your bacon? We would never wish to ruin your bacon cooking routine, but here is the real reason why you should try cooking bacon in water.

First, there is no such thing as "Bad Bacon".. Second, anyone that watched this entire video should be given a medal.

I start in a COLD pan... Low and slow is the way to go! It also stays perfectly flat. I have used the “Water Method” when cooking extra thick Bacon. Great video!

I didn't even know this was a thing. I did it to remove some of the salt and it worked in every way. Looks evenly cooked no burning, even color on all pieces not the usual amount of grease, and still crispy. Forever doing it this way.

Fry it in a pan drain it on paper towels and eat it that's it

This really is the best way to cook thick cut bacon. Wonderful!

I'll continue doing mine in the oven, thanks. Much simpler with perfect results.

I am one of the few that cooks it in the oven. I have a convection oven now and I cook it at about 380. I don't have to turn it over or anything. It does cook from the outside in so I just remove the outer slices first, and drain them on paper towel. That's it. It works great and doing it like this for years.

I love my bacon chewy and crispy. Never was able to get it that way as much as I wanted. Now I know how. That you Mashed.

Just tried this boiling method. Cast iron skillet, cover bacon with water (thick bacon), boiled on high until the water evaporated. Turned the heat to medium and flipped the bacon several times. The bacon came out perfect! slight crunch but still chewy and still a bit salty.

Never heard of this before.. will try..

Learn something new everyday!

[ginaf]

[upsidedowndog]

Very interesting. I usually bake mine but the sweet spot is easily passed.

[krissyrandolph]

Bacon once in a while, yes!I always felt it was my birthday after eating bacon with pancake and hot chocolate drink. So rich!!!

[bluerose]

I was taught by my grandma to cook bacon like this. It renders more fat out the bacon for those who like to save bacon grease and your bacon cooks perfectly!
