Cooked bacon several ways... frying pan, oven..always a mess in the house. My solution....on the gas grill Liberalism is a mental disorder that leads to social disease.

My Mother used to use the broiler on Her electric stove. She could look and take it off exactly right. The light from the wires made it look different to me and I could not judge it while still in the oven, like She could. miles Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

She had a rack with a pan under it so that She could catch the grease and pour it into a vessel that looked like a coffee pot, but was made for bacon grease. miles Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.
