I was just wondering who out there microwaves their bacon. I like turkey bacon because it's not as greasy as regular bacon. I like it cooked on the frying pan and in the microwave. I'm just curious if I was the only one who does it.

I prefer cooking it in the microwave, but I've found if I do it on the defrost setting it seems to cook a little better and doesn't get as dry, at least for turkey bacon. Line a plate with paper towels on top and bottom of the bacon to help absorb some fat. Also there are special bacon microwave trays out there. The only one I can think of off hand is the "bacon barn." Sounds goofy and it is, but it some people prefer microwaving bacon this way because it allows the grease and fat to run off and collects it in a tray.

Yes, I have microwaved bacon many times. I even had at one time a special cooker for microwaving bacon that had ridges for the bacon slices to sit on top of, and a slant to it so the fat would run into a trough that was lower than the bacon. Worked great til I lost it while moving from one state to another a few years back. (I would put paper towels on top of the bacon so it would not splatter all over the microwave).

I have used the Microwave for one person, a frying pan for 2-4, and when there a lot of people, I bake my Bacon in the oven.

I use the microwave to nuke bacon. I use pork bacon. I place 3 to 4 strips on a ridged microwave plate. The valleys between the ridges carry the fat away from the bacon, so I am able to get it crisp. I find I do better nuking it than trying to fry it.

the only way to make good turkey bacon is in the microwave otherwise its gummy, not crisp. It works for pork and beef bacon too

drape bacon over pint jar set on glass pie plate. cook on high for 1 minute at a time. this is for regular bacon. quick already cooked bacon that only needs to be heated: lay between paper towel sheets and heat 30 seconds at a time on high. when it is hot, remove.
