Alright bacon lovers...I need your tips

Grill works for me. No clean up & the added smokiness is a plus. Pay attention because it doesn’t take very long.

Grill is great, and I’ve done that before. Just need to watch out for the grease drippings causing bug flare ups.
 
Bacon on the grill is still fantastic. Gets crispy and I can tell myself that it's healthier since it isn't cooking in grease.

But, my favorite way to cook bacon is to wrap it around a lil smokie and sprinkle with brown sugar. But that's usually reserved for holiday appetizers and not as a side with eggs.

I have to make 3 little smokies packages worth for XMAS it fills up a normal sized crockpot. It takes a while.
 
I've used nothing but the air fryer for the last 8 years.

400 degrees. About 12-15 minutes.

You do need to flip/rearrange it at least once as it tends to stick slightly to the bottom. I just use a little fork for that. And as it cooks and shrinks you can move it around to give space for the air to pass through.

No fuss or splatter. Pour the accumulated drippings into its container and pop in the fridge for future eggs or even for a stir-fried green bean side.

The air fryer pan is the only clean-up

Depending on the size of your air fryer you are limited to about 1/2 pound at a time. Which is enough for two generously covered BLTs.
