Cooking Bacon (in a pot vs in the oven)…one way is clearly better! 

We’ve cooked bacon so many different ways around here, but today was the day to officially decide the overall best way.
+ we ruled out microwave because:
It takes too long to microwave the massive quantity of bacon that we eat.
Microwaves aren’t exactly healthy (not that bacon is a winner in the health department), but we prefer to only use the microwave when necessary.
+ Option 1: cooking bacon in a large pot. The goal is to decrease the grease splatter since it’s in a large pot.
+ Option 2: cooking it in the oven.
They’re both quite easy, but one way resulted in a better taste!
And I DO love my cast iron for most things, but I really hate bacon grease everywhere, so that’s why we’re giving the big pot a try.
How do YOU cook bacon??
