Ingredients

  • 8 slices bacon
  • large baking sheet
  • aluminum foil

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place the bacon slices on the foil. Place the pan in a cold oven (this is the trick to getting the fat the render evenly).
    Set oven to 375℉. Bake 16-18 minutes (16 for chewier bacon, 18 for crispier bacon). Remove from oven and drain on paper towels. Enjoy.
