Whats the best way to get rid of bacon odor in my house after cooking it?

Answer 1

After you cook your house, it smells like bacon? Weird.

But seriously, first I have to ask: Why get rid of it? Isn't cooked bacon the greatest scent in the world.

If you really want to get rid of it, I would suggest burning incense. If it can camoflage my farts, it can certainly take care of your bacon odor situation.

Answer 2

I actually own a microwave bacon cooker and use it at least once a week. It's circular with raised ridges that run the width of the platter to allow the grease to drain away from the bacon while it cooks. Microwaving doesn't change the taste and the only difference in appearance is that the strips of bacon are flatter after cooking and do not shrink as much as they do when you fry them in a skillet. Those that are telling you the bacon doesn't get crispy in a microwave just aren't cooking it long enough. I usually microwave 5-6 slices at a time and cook them for 4- 4 1/2 minutes.

Preventing it is the best first step. If you have an outside powered vent for the stove, use it. If it is just a recirculating hood, wash or replace the filter. If you opt for replacement, some can come with activated charcoal in them that can help. Even though it is a recriculating fan, there's metal strips in front that are designed to let the oil vapors collect, thats what you are going to clean off afterward. Better there then on your walls, rugs and curtains, etc...

A microwave really minimizes the release of bacon fat in the air.

Lastly, removal: Buy an aircleaner that generates a small amount of ozone. You don't need to leave it on all of the time, just after frying or sauteing. Gives you that smell like after a summer storm!

Answer 4

I rarely cook bacon on the stove, for this very reason. I lay the strips on a Pampered Chef stoneware baking pan (11x15) and bake it at 350 unitl it is done to my liking. The grease is a fantastic way to season this type of baking stone, by the way. Never ever bake bacon on a flat baking stone with no sides!
In a pinch, you can purchase pre-cooked bacon and skip all the smell and grease.

Answer 5

After you wash the pan and clean the stove you can spray some air freshener or light a candle. I like the odors of cooking so I wouldn't do anything after cleaning up but that is just me.

Answer 6

Boil some vinegar or lemon juice in a pot on the stove. All those sprays and stuff just mask it for a while, and sometimes, I'd rather smell bacon than the deodorizer spray.

Answer 7

mmmm...bacon

There's no way to successfully remove the bacon odor since the grease drops get into everything.

In the future, close all the room doors and remove the cloth from the kitchen and dining rooms.
