Approx 20 t0 35 minutes depending on pre-heating and accuracy of the oven at 350

I cook mine hotter.....425 for about 15 minutes....but I watch it very closely.

Thank you both very much.

I do about 20 minutes at 400F. I like mine very crispy!

This is the only way I make bacon anymore, so easy, no splatters, and just hit the "self clean" cycle on the oven afterwards. No muss, no fuss!

Barefoot Contessa's Maple-Roasted Bacon
30 min : 5 min prep : SERVES 4 -8

3/4 lb thick-cut smoked Bacon (16 slices)
1-2 tablespoon good maple syrup

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Place a baking rack on a sheet pan and arrange the bacon in 1 layer on the baking rack.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the bacon begins to brown.

Remove the pan carefully from the oven; there will be hot grease in the pan!

Brush the bacon slices with maple syrup and bake for another 3 to 5 minutes, until the bacon is a warm golden brown.

Transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels and serve warm.

I do mine on a Pampered Chef bar stone. 425* for about 20 minutes, depending on your oven, the degree of crispness you want, and if it is more than one batch, the second doesn't take as long. Comes out just the way DH likes it, and is flat (nice for sandwiches) and doesn't seem to splatter up the oven like it does the stove top.

350 for 30-40 minutes will get you close. You have to watch them closely at the end because they will go from not done to burnt very quickly.

I use a half sheet pan and rack and lay as many strips as I can on the surface. They will shrink as they cook so you can put them right up against each other.

I wouldn't use paper towels or anything else in the sheet pan. The best part of baking bacon is all the yummy, clean bacon grease that you can pour off and save.

I cook at 400 degrees for around 15 minutes for soft, and longer for crispy. I would recommend cooking it for 15 minutes and tasting a sample. If it is still not to your satisfaction cook it longer in increments of 5 to 10 minutes. Once you have found out the amount of time it takes to make it to your liking, write down the time. Now you know exactly how to cook it for your enjoyment. I wrote an article on how to cook bacon in an oven that might be worth looking at.

Ha, another old post from the archives.

Probably the only reason i have a microwave. Two or fours frozen slices of thick beautiful bacon between p-towels...double up on the bottom...cooks perfectly...just need to check after a minute, then 30 sec, then 15 sec, etc. so easy and no mess.

Would never do a lb of bacon in my oven. It is a treat and not often. And a greasy mess...

On the grill in August when the tomatoes are lovely...cast iron bacon, then halved potatoes face down in the fat...a rare treat.

Sleevendog, the only thing that makes a mess in my oven is when something other than bacon runs over. I have never had a splattered mess from bacon in my oven. I have done bacon in the microwave, and will eat it, but not my favorite. And I always end up with a mess doing it in the microwave. Good thing we have so many options!
