    As someone that goes all their cooking with a microwave ( partially cause I'm lazy, partially cause the gas was never reconnected after a fire in 2018 ) I'm happy to have found this vid. Thank you much for the upload and the tips. Gonna go enjoy some crispy bits now

    Merci. After years of cooking good bacon at home on the pan, I was fearful of moving to the microwave. Not anymore. Top advice and clear instructions, thank you.

    I have the same Microwave, I cook my bacon using a Paper Plate, lay paper towel on bottom then lay 1 layer of bacon. Repeat for a second layer of bacon cover with another sheet of paper and cook for around 8-10 or even 12 minutes depending on your microwave and thickness of bacon.. Bacon comes out crispy and not saturated in grease.. Just throw away the paper products afterwards.. Love Bacon but MODERATION.. To many younger people dropping off from heart attacks.. Stay well, be safe out there..

    Would this work for turkey bacon? Thanks! Love the video!
  • Great instructions. I tried 1 piece first but put it on a 1/2 sheet paper towel and covered it with another half. After three minutes it was so crisp, I didn't need the 3-2-1 method. But that may be because I only did one piece. I will try it again with 4-5 pieces. This is so much faster and easy cleanup with no splatter. Thanks.

  • @chaycewrld6693

  • @bexaminer1
    I'll give it a try. I did wonder though if you had the microwave set at 100% or maybe less.
