How to pan fry back bacon (also known as British bacon) in a skillet on the stovetop, with helpful cooking tips and seasoning options.

Cooking Back Bacon

bacon

black pepper ((optional))

pork rub ((optional))

If you wish to reduce curling, use the kitchen scissors to make small cuts along the fatty edges of the bacon.

Arrange several slices in a skillet. Heat over medium-low heat until browned.

Turn the bacon slices over and continue cooking until browned, about 4-5 minutes on each side.

Remove from the pan with tongs or a spatula and drain slices on paper towels. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper or your favorite pork rub seasoning if you wish.

I’ve been making my own Canadian Bacon for a few years now. When pork loin is on sale, I cure it in a brine using Prague Powder #2 for a week, drain and wash, then dry it overnight it the fridge rolled in cornmeal ( can’t get ground peameal around me, there is a difference in taste). The cornmeal draws water out of the loin. Think I slice it and vacuum seal it. Easy to make. The formula for the brine and is by weight of water and pork. Prague Powder #2 has to be used properly, as it is a chemical.

Eliza...thanks for all of the helpful tips for the Back Bacon! 
I had just recently purchased some from @jollyposhfoods and after reading your recipe on how to cook, decided to give it a try! 
I used Bacon Up to oil my pan...cooked for 3 mins of each side
After cooking, I dressed a couple of pieces with Japanese 7 Spice, &amp; a couple of pieces with @Mike'sHotHoney...both came out amazing! These will make a great breakfast addition when I serve them in my Baps!
