Equipment

  • 1 Skillet

Ingredients

  • 10 Strips of raw bacon

Instructions

  • A big skillet should be heated over low heat. Lay down a number of raw bacon strips. Allow the strips to cook for 10 to 15 minutes, occasionally flipping them. Use tongs or a fork to remove the bacon strips from the pan after they are beautifully browned and crispy. Set them aside on a plate with paper towels underneath to absorb any remaining fat.
  • Put the jar with the pan's residual grease in the refrigerator. The bacon grease will condense into an oddly coloured white solid.
