Secret Ingredient for the Crispiest Bacon

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Place bacon on a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet.
3. Add 1–2 tablespoons of water to the sheet beneath (not touching bacon).
4. Bake for 15–20 minutes, flipping halfway for even results.

✨ Extra Tips for Success

• Choose Thick-Cut Bacon for the best texture and structure.
• Use a Wire Rack in the oven for crispier, less greasy results.
• Save the Bacon Fat! Perfect for sautéing or roasting.
• Flavor Play: Sprinkle bacon with brown sugar, chili flakes, or smoked paprika before cooking for a gourmet twist.

Say goodbye to splattery chaos and uneven cooking—this water method is your bacon upgrade.
