Cook the bacon for 18-20 minutes or until it&#039;s reached your desired level of crispiness. Remove the tray from the oven and transfer the bacon with tongs to a paper towel-lined plate.

If you&#039;re rendering the bacon fat, line a fine mesh sieve with a paper towel. Then place the sieve over a glass storage container and pour the bacon fat from the sheet tray into the sieve. Cover the glass storage container and place it in the refrigerator for future cooking needs.

How to Bake Bacon In The Oven

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

Lay bacon flat on the lined sheet pan side-by-side, careful to not overlap the bacon.

Once the oven is preheated, place bacon in the oven on the middle rack until the bacon is desired doneness. This will take anywhere from 10-25 minutes. - Regular/thinner cut bacon - 10-15 minutes. - Thick cut bacon - 20-25 minutes

Once done, remove bacon from the oven and remove to a wire rack or plate. Remove excess grease by blotting the bacon with a paper towel. The bacon will be crispy after this step.

Oven baked bacon is one of my favorite meal prep items, because it cooks a whole lot of bacon at once! No tending the bacon, no flipping, no splattering grease everywhere. Just beautiful bacon strips cooked till your exact liking!

Oven Baked Bacon (Big Batch)

Preheat the oven to 450°F.

Line a baking sheet with a heavy-duty foil. (Note: You can crumble the foil, or leave it smooth. I tested both ways and there was no noticeable difference.)

Arrange the bacon slices on the prepared baking sheet. (It’s ok to overlap a little to fit all the bacon.)

Bake for about 20 minutes, or until desired crispiness is reached. Start checking after 10-minute mark. (No need to flip them half way.)

Using a pair of kitchen tongs, transfer the cooked bacon onto a baking sheet lined with paper towel to absorb excess fat.

Carefully, pour the hot bacon grease into a glass jar.  You can use bacon grease for just about anywhere oil is called for.
