PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS
OVEN BAKED
Lay bacon strips on a rack over a baking sheet and bake at 400°F (205°C) for 15–20 minutes. Even crisp with easy cleanup.
SKILLET RENDERED
Cook in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat 8–10 minutes to desired crispness. Drain on paper towels.
BACON WRAPPED ITEMS
Wrap around chicken, asparagus, or scallops before cooking to add fat, flavor, and a crispy exterior.
BACON BITS
Chop cooked bacon and use as a topping for salads, soups, vegetables, or eggs throughout the week.
BACON FAT FOR COOKING
Save rendered bacon fat for sautéing vegetables or frying eggs; it adds flavor and supports keto macros.
BACON WRAPPED BURGERS
Form ground beef patties and wrap with a bacon strip before cooking to self-baste and crisp the exterior.
