I got tired of grease splattering everywhere across our kitchen and even on my face and skin.

How To Cook Bacon Mess-Free

Jakes foolproof method?

Since bacon releases fat as it cooks in the oven, theres no need to grease the foil.

He bakes the bacon until crispy, carefully flipping them halfway through the 15-minute cooking time.

Then, he removes the bacon from the oven and rests the crispy strips on a paper-towel-lined plate.

As the bacon cools, the paper towel will absorb the extra grease.

Once the oil in the baking sheet has cooled, Jake removes the aluminum foil.

Otherwise, wipe the excess oil off thebaking sheetor quickly wash it and rinse with warm, soapy water.

Its a humble yet satisfying meal that keeps us fueled all day.
